🌿 Lava Cake – Week 4 VEG | Queen Energy & Full Ecosystem Build 🌿 Both Lava Cake phenos are thriving post-transplant—zero signs of stress, branching vigorously, and growing like there’s no tomorrow, they’re glowing like true queens under the summer sun. 👑 ⸻ 🌱 Growth Highlights • Structure: Lateral branches coming in fast and healthy • Leaves: Deep green, thick, full of life—new sets coming in strong • Resilience: No transplant shock observed; they’re in full takeoff mode • Training: Not started yet, but their shape is ideal for light training soon ⸻ 💧 Nutrient Profile Current feeding recipe (per liter of water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml Supports nutrient flow, strengthens cell walls, anti-stress defense. • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml Helping frame formation and boosting photosynthetic power. • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml Serving as the balanced nutrient base. • Aptus Start Booster – 0.2 ml Still enhancing root expansion and early leaf vigor. We’re still watering from below, by filling the tray and letting the substrate absorb from the bottom up, encouraging strong root systems and oxygen-rich zones in the upper soil. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Overview • Room Temp: 27°C • Humidity: 57.4% • CO₂: 632 ppm • Water Temp: 18.5°C • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 Everything monitored in real time via the TrolMaster Ecosystem, providing precision control and remote access, yes, even while we’re in the bathroom. 😉 ⸻ 💡 Lights & Zones We’ve now expanded our setup into the 8x8 tent, and the Lava Cakes are sharing space with their sisters across two dedicated zones: • Future of Grow – Black Series 600: Full-spectrum power delivering compact, colorful growth. • ThinkGrow Model Ones: Smart spectrum and PPFD control, perfectly synced with the TrolMaster system. Both lighting zones are tuned for veg—intensity dialed in, and spectrum tuned for lush photosynthesis. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Filtration • Exhaust: Two 6” inline fans with carbon filters for odor and purity • TrolMaster Aerofan 6” (controlled by Tent-X controller) • Spider Farmer 6” Inline (controlled by GGS Controller) • Intake: One 6” active intake with filter This full cycle keeps airflow fresh, clean, and optimized, essential for plant metabolism and VPD balance. 💡 Why carbon filters even now? Because purity matters. Even in early veg, it keeps the air crisp and microbial risks low. Plus, stealth mode always on. 🔇 ⸻ 📈 Sensors in Action We’re dialing in with: • CO₂ sensor (live ppm tracking) • Humidity/Temp sensor • PPFD sensor for light mapping and consistency These tools allow us to optimize every square meter of canopy, ensuring no girl is left behind. ⸻ 🌿 Looking Ahead • Light training coming soon • Roots will now fully colonize the 11L Amnesia fabric pots • Expect explosive top and side growth • Canopy management will begin as needed • More studio photo sessions—before the girls outgrow the door! 📸 ⸻ 🧠 Final Notes This is a very special run. The Lava Cakes are being treated like royalty—from tailored nutrients to cutting-edge control systems. The goal: maximum quality, transparency, and education every step of the way.

New week starts! I will wright updates every day now. Cos I don't want to keep photos on my mobile devise. I'll make new photo of a new day, load it up and delete immediately. Keep it safe, guys. 🌞13.11.2022 I putted some more substrate to cover my flowers to the leaves. It's only 'training' till now. Also, one of my mini ventilators started to make a creepy noise. I ordered two more cheap mini USB ventilators. I hope they will live longer. That one died after a couple month of work. Sadly... 🌞14.11.2022 Next day morning my ventilator died. I scrued it apart. Then I remembered I have tattoo machine oil in my garage. When I oiled it and turned ON it began to spin like new... Mb I acted stupid buying two new ones, mb not. It's written on the oil tube: 'Oil your tattoo machine every 30 hrs'. So after a few days we'll see. :-) 🌞15.11.2022 The second one plant has a slightly larger second pair of leaves (triple ones). Maybe because it came from her seed one day later. There were a seed peeling problem to both of them and I was forced to help. A difference in germination time was about 8 hrs. 🌞17.11.2022 My ventilator died this evening. Two others I ordered didn't come to me yet. But they should come tomorrow. I don't know will they pass, but it will be better then nothing... 8 hrs difference between growing flowers still noticeable, it's disposed on photos. No feeding for today. 🌞18.11.2022 Today two new air coolers came. They are good quality and power for their's size but too noisy. Not so bad, I say. I installed one of them (it's on photo) and leave the second old one on it's place. It still works and a noise is not so loud. I wunder, why my plants are different by the size. Maybe because one of my old ventilators stopped all the time? 🌞19.11.2022 I watered my girls with 'GHE Pro Roots' and measured drainage today. Input was ph6.0 and outflow - ph6.5. I think we'll be OK in a few weeks. I learned from the grow questions that auto flowers grow better and bigger in pure coco with perlite, but i have mix soil/coco/perlite in my pots. Now I nervous if all will be OK. But my substrate is soft (tapped it with my finger) even when it's watered. We'll see how it'll go compared to others diaries of the same strain.

The plants have taken to their Earthboxes, especially #1 with the BuildASoil Light. The Earthbox with my Coots mix was the runt, plus I damaged the roots during transplant so it has an uphill battle, but I wouldn't count it out yet. It was looking droopy and with slight discoloration, but after a drench of Kashi Blend Tea (1/3 cup Kashi Blend, 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses in 1 gallon of water for 24 hours) it perked right up. As for preventative pest management, I've kept doing foliar applications every 4 days of EM-FPE -> EM-1, next week I will incorporate the just-finished EM-5. I made a JADAM wetting agent (JWA) but I have realized even local bottled water is too mineral-heavy for it, so I will need to find a source of distilled water if I want to use it in my foliar regime. Next week I will begin doing LST to get some more tops going. At some point I plan to add a trellis, I have been busy with work but I will find the time to set up something, preferably a trellis that can move with the Earthbox to facilitate maintenance and not have them fixed in place for the entire training and flowering cycles.

Overall very happy with this plant grow. She was by far the hungriest of the four plants in this grow, but she still developed nicely, loads of sticky sweet smelling buds. Will update in 2 weeks, after the first smoke. Update! Smoked the first buds from this harvest, the smoke was smooth, light berry/fruit taste, it will get stronger as they cure in their jars. Overall, I am happy with the plant, the bud product and quality. She's not a super heavy indica, but she can still pack a punch!

It's been a wonderful journey, I'm very happy about this lady's performance, she has produced a high quality harvest, low quantity but I didn't maximice the space as good as I should, but definitely a wonderful genetic to grow, the flowrs are super sticky, full of trichomes and the smell is just the clasic amnesia smell you expect.

8/22 - There has been some explosive growth among my 4 purple Microdots. They are growing by leaps and bounds each day, 8/23 - So far everything is going smoothly. Just watering each day w/ RO water and organic black strap molasses. 8/24 - Brewing up some compost tea. This will be there first! As they start to get a little bigger I've made a prediction for sex. I think A238 & A239 are male and A240 & A241 are female. We'll see! 8/25- Fed the ladies with the compost tea and used it as a foliar spray as well. They responded very well and continue to have crazy, rapid, growth. 8/27 - They have gotten so big and bushy. I'm going to start a little LST on them today! 8/30 - They are starting to show sex! Still can't tell whether it's male or female...but it should be any day now!

I’m pretty sure the leaf issues I’ve been having is from the bonide neem follair spraying. Have not sprayed anymore. No longer having pest issues. Removed the gelato runt as it was not growing at a good rate. Using the space to take clones for keepers I might have.

Variété parfaite pour les débutants. Les plantes sont très résistantes aux chocs de température et d'humidité. Elles donnent des rendements satisfaisants et un goût agréable. La runtz a une odeur très sucrée, presque comme un gâteau, je n'avais jamais senti une plante avec une odeur pareille, c'est très agréable. Les plants étaient tous petit, 50 centimètres environ, et n'avaient pas beaucoup d'odeur pendant la floraison, c'est parfait si vous voulez être discret. Concernant les effets, on voit bien que c'est une souche 50% sativa 50% indica. Au début les effets sont euphorisants, elle provoque des rires, mais par la suite et donne un bon effet analgésique, parfait pour aller dormir, je n'ai pas trop de flow de pensé avec et c'est très agréable pour se détendre. J'ai obtenu 34g et 45g sachant que j'ai eu pas mal de problèmes.

🌸 Week 4 Flower — stacking hard! 🌸 This week buds really started to bulk up and frost over ❄️. Pistils are everywhere, calyxes swelling, and the tent is getting that loud smell — fruity and gassy terps filling the air 🚀. Humidity is now fully under control thanks to the dehumidifier (holding steady at 50–55%), so no more worries about mold 👌. Light intensity is increased to max safe PPFD, and I can clearly see the difference in bud density. Nutrients are now PK-heavy with Big Bud Powder and Bud Candy — plants are clearly loving it 🍭💪. I also added Rhino Skin to strengthen the cell walls, making them more resistant to stress. Mistakes from earlier are visible (JetFuel is still behind in size), but the rest of the plants are pushing hard. Looking forward to the trich explosion next week ✨.

🍀04/07 - Empieza su sexta semana en Etapa de floración. 🍀Me sorprende lo llena de tricomas que esta, su olor es fuerte y ya no veo la hora de poder probarla. 🍀Se encuentra perfecta de salud, solo que tuve que hacer un cambio de lugar a las lámparas porque crecieron demasiado alto para el indor que tengo, algunas hojas que se encuentran abajo están un poco amarillas pero nada grave. 🍀El ph del agua es de 6.2 🍀Voy a estar dejando videos de como se encuentra. 🍀En estos dias seguire subiendo mas imagenes. 🍀🇦🇷😶‍🌫️Podes seguirme en Insta gram como @bruweed_arg 🍀🇦🇷😶‍🌫️
