🌿 Week 4 – Vegetative Stage Strain: Permanent Marker (Zamnesia Seeds) Project: Dognabis Cup Example Grow 🌍 ⸻ 💚 Growth Before the Flip The girls are still in veg, but they’re showing such strong, pre-flower-like development that it almost feels like they’re ahead of schedule. Internodal spacing is tight, leaf formation is elegant, and both phenos (PM#1 and PM#2) remain incredibly similar in structure, color, and vigor. They have a compact yet big presence, lush canopies with balanced symmetry. The consistency in these genetics is impressive, and they’ve kept their health spotless from the start. ⸻ 📸 Studio Shots This week, we brought them into the studio to capture their beauty one last time before they transition to flower. Deep greens, perfect leaf serration, and textbook node formation, they’re looking ready for the big stage. ⸻ 💧 Feeding – No Change in Recipe We continue with the same nutrient schedule as before: • Start Booster – To encourage strong root systems and microbial support • CalMag Boost – To ensure no deficiencies and strong cell walls • Regulator – For nutrient uptake efficiency and plant resilience • pH: ~6.1 • Feed EC: ~0.6 (pellets in the soil are still doing a lot of the work) This consistency is key, we want them steady and strong going into the flip. ⸻ 🌿 Environment & Measurements • Air Temp: ~31°C (slightly high, AC unit arriving soon to improve this) • Humidity: ~50% • CO₂: ~700 ppm • Soil Temp: ~25°C • Watering: ~1.5–2.0 L/day, triggered at ~25% soil dryness • Soil EC: ~2.0 (nutrient balance remains ideal) • PPFD: 760–780 µmol/m²/s, with natural variation due to untrained growth pattern ⸻ 🎓 Why the Data Matters Tracking PPFD, soil EC, dryness, temperature, and CO₂ isn’t just technical, it’s about reading the plants. These numbers help anticipate issues before they show visually, fine-tune growth rates, and ensure optimal conditions for the flip. ⸻ 👑 The Queen Awaits Permanent Marker remains one of the most exciting modern strains, a new-school heavy-hitter with legendary parentage (Biscotti x Jealousy x Sherb Bx). As an example grow for the Dognabis Cup, these plants are showing exactly what careful, consistent cultivation can achieve. ⸻ 🔮 Next Week: The Flip This is the last week of vegetative growth. The next stage will see the girls officially move into flower, where we expect explosive bud site development and that unmistakable Permanent Marker frost. For now, we enjoy the sight of healthy, happy queens, calm before the floral storm. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Tag 22: Die Woche begann mit dem Topping von zwei Damen (nur eine für diesen Report relevant), da diese bereit waren über der 5. Nodie abgetrennt zu werden. Dabei gleich noch ein paar größere Blätter entnommen oben, damit alle Triebe jetzt gut Licht kriegen. Der Rest der Ladys ist heute Abend oder morgen früh dran 😊 Und so war es dann auch, abends konnten alle Damen bis auf die lemon cherry gelato getoppt werden. Im Anschluss gab es Boom Boom Spray zur Erholung. Tag 23: Morgens ist mir mein KI Controller anscheinend abgeschmiert und hat sich selbstständig für gut zwei Stunden in den Pausemodus begeben, bis ich wach wurde und es bemerkt habe bei der morgen Kontrolle. Nach dem Schock und zwei Stunden richtig schlechter Laune noch die Lemon Cherry Gelato getoppt und mit Boom Boom Spray versorgt. Tag 24: heute musste ich unerwartet gießen, da die Ladys über Nacht richtig viel getrunken haben und ich sie nicht bis heute Abend dursten lassen wollte. 400ml für jede der Damen gab es mit ph 6.0 und 1ml/l calmag. Tag 25: heute nichts besonderes zu berichten 😼 Tag 26: du meine Güte sind die Damen durstig, muss heute Abend wieder gießen und dieses Wochenende dürfte es dann auch Zeit für die 20l Endtöpfe sein — Umtopfen ist angesagt 😊 Am Abend wurden dann pro Pflanze 0,5l ph 6.3 Wasser gegossen. Tag 27: mit dem Umtopfen sind die Painkiller nun uns kleine Zelt umgezogen und somit verbleiben nur die Lemon Trees und die Lemon Cherry Gelato im großen Zelt und haben nun richtig viel Platz 😊 Tag 28: Endlich durften die Ladys in ihre 20l Stofftöpfe umziehen. Beim Umtopfen gab es noch 65g GHF Biogrow sowie White Shark mycorrhiza ins Substrat und danach wurde mit 3l ph 6.3 Wasser angegossen. Im Anschluss noch das Licht auf 600ppfd erhöht. Ende Vegi-Woche 2 ✌️ Day 22: I started the week with the topping of two ladies (only one of them is relevant for this report), because they were ready to be cut above the fifth node. I also took off some of the larger leaves, so that all the branches get enough light. 😊 The rest of the ladies should be ready this evening or tomorrow morning. And as I said, I was able to top all the other ladies, besides the Lemon Cherry Gelato, which has to wait till tomorrow. Afterwards they got some Boom Boom Spray for recovery. Day 23: This morning my ai controller decided to go to pausemode on its own and shut down the tent for about two hours until I woke up and made my morning control. After two hours of bad mood I topped the lemon cherry gelato and treated her with Boom Boom spray Day 24: this morning I had to water the ladies unexpectedly, because they drank more than I thought they would. So every Lady got 400ml ph 6.0 water with 1ml/l calmag. Day 25: nothing special to report today 😼 Day 26: they’re drinking more then I expected, I have to water them again this evening and they will be repotted to their last 20l pots 😊 In the evening each Lady got 0,5l of ph 6.3 water. Day 27: my wife’s Painkillers left the tent after repotting and now the lemon trees and the LCG have lots of space to grow big 😊 Day 28: finally I could repot the Ladys to their 20l fabric pots. They got 65g GHF Biogrow and White Shark mycorrhiza to the soil and afterwards I watered them 3l ph 6.3 water and adjusted the the lights to 600ppfd End of week 2 ✌️

Purple purple purple! I want to keep her going until the entire thing is purple but the trichomes are mostly amber and without side lighting the bottom buds are just not developing fast enough comparatively. So rather than make the experience just be me falling asleep every use, I'm going to opt to chop her tonight or tomorrow probably. It's been 4.5 months and I need to get the tent set up and make this bucket 100x better!

day 49 just pure water phed down. it is day 51, morning before lights on, I might chop today. I use a zero water filter pitcher got off walmart. My humidifier is only a sonic wave. If you use regular tap water it will get gunky in a sonic humidifier. If you have a heat humidifier that boils the water the mist should be clean. These are the 2 types of water humidifiers. Researching best water filters this "zero water" also comes with a free ppm meter! yay! Other water pitcher brands; the water still has ppm. So water misted will still have ppm contamination. You can easily used distilled water only, and reverse osmosis. I just fill a 4gal office water jug with the pitcher and fill my humidifier when needed. I do not use a humidifier in my entire grow up to this point when I chop, I need the perfect rh or this whole effort can fail. growing up to this point only requires 20% effort, chopping now for the 2 weeks dry is this 80% of crucial determination, succeed. A lot of tasks are required today for a clean chop. I feel confident, observed my cross seeds with pink paradise and one with a slightly open caylex looks dark enough for successful germination. I figured 8-16 seeds may be created, 3-4 buds were potentially pollinated. Many growers don't understand when creating genetics with female/female there is a slight chance of herm. You lose 50% of your genetic function. Just water last 2 days, no humic no folvic, 1st time entire grow ha! There is a lot of cleaning to do, remove the trees, clean the entire tent and environment with bleach water, hacksaw. I am very proud of my grow. I have sampled 3 of the strains, dr. thunder legit made my lips numb but it could have just been the terps removing my skin cells from the sticky filter, no lie. This is my best grow to date. I did this for you, and to document hype or not under the best conditions I could give my plants, full max potential, although I wish I had more lights, I am not looking for industrial lol, this is how I grow. Learn a lot on youtube and podcasts there is many good content and I may dab into it. You can have a room full of growers and you have 1 seed in your hand, they will all tell you that their way is correct ;) and the best way. Oreo is stinky AF, Bridal is just amazing glad its massive, just not into sativa but the test seemed slight sativa with majority indica, pink untested, dr, thunder just a lip numming plant aha, its very nice, all 4 amazing appeal like advertised, and excited for next run. Either crosses from this or other copycat genetics. I will give you beautiful glamout shots today, the sizes of the plants, My guesstimate bridal 1lb, thunder 1lb, pink, 0.4lb, bridal 0.5, I am ambitious off 640w lm301h, and 4x 20w blurples daisy chained. day 51 4 chopped see you in a few weeks :D

4/26 Week 5 Still have not gone more than halfway into flower, lets hope this extends a few days longer. Would like to know Feed is pretty stable, seems dead on from the plants response. Continuing for now. 4/27 Still going in veg although flower seems to be just sitting in the wings ready to step up. Growth tips getting a little hairy but still growth tips. Dropped lights a tad to increase growth leaving HID at 450w MH bulb Gave them a shot of Fish Sh!t and kangaroots get those roots going If I have to guess Baba is going to be the producer here, she is the only one that came up "normally" from the seed, no coloring or size issues. She will get favored placement in the light... sounds ritualistic dont it lol 4/28 Still hanging on to veg by the skin of their teeth but those are still growth tips, hairy but no cola structure beginning yet. Nuets to half Grow half Bloom late: Looks like Athena in is Flower , Baba is transistioning, and Sally brings up the rear but is going very soon. Changed nuets reducing Grow Inc Bloom 4/29 31 Days in Only Athena is in full flower, others transitioning. 4/30 Everybody is in flower but barely so giving a one time shot of PK Really focusing on Baba she is looking like a winner. 5/1 Pics Stretch going full blast overnight, had to raise the lights 4 inches Raised lights again 2 inches they really going after it. Should have turned on the HID/MH earlier (start of week 4), since its been on inter-nodal spacing is excellent. Could have reduced the stretch on Athena and Sally. Baba that is expressing Indica is exactly what you want in the strain. Buds will be green and very dense. Adjusted nuets expecting this to stop tomorrow. Since all three in full flower now will give another shot of PK in the AM 5/2 Going to fold in a low dose of Koolbloom PK for a few feedings, get those buds a going Stretch is still ongoing but is controlled with the extra blue spectrum in the metal halide bulb and Mars LED. Going to keep the process of adding Bloom nuets at first appearance of hairs as I think we got a few extra days of veg out of it. Increased HID to 600 watts raised to 16 inches, ditto for the TS1000 16 inches They shifting quickly to bud building, still some stretch going on, will keep Grow nuets in till it stops. Slight increase in Bloom nuets Athena may well prove to be the most purple we have grown to date.

The plants still look a little hungary , but with the temperature outside dropping it has been down to 19.5 highs in the tent. So rather than adding my 500w heater , I have thrown in a Easygrow 100w led QB with Samsung H leds. I have given them a KNF foliar feed and bio enhancer yesterday, I'm hoping more heat and light will get them feeding well again.

Dinafem Critical Cheese is one of the best plants I have grown! Resistant to mold ( at night sometimes the humidity reached 99.9% and so the wall started to show fungus marks, the situation was rectified by adding an extra fan) . Critical cheese is a pleasure to grow, especially one of them who smells like strong lemony cheesy goodness and is very sticky, my room smells so strong when i open the grow room door! I will try all of Dinafem seeds in the future!

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** If you like this week, please hit a like, it costs you nothing! 👊. Thanks in advance 😉! From/Desde: 05/08/19 || To/Hasta: 11/08/19 From day/Desde día: 14 || To day/Hasta día: 20 -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- V2: From day 17 to 22 she has turned a quarter, 90º. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- One week more of normal and constant grow, i like the rythm she has growing as i feel she's having a good amount of time for developing the root system. I didn't noticed any weird colour, twirl or something like that, anyway this tent is not totally isolated from outdoors as is always semi-opened in my living room, and the door to my terrace is opened 24/7. She looks very healthy and equitative, also i think she has a perfect height to keep her growing at low height, just a bit over the pot once topped. Next week i will perform the first topping and prunning. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 08/08/19 - 3,000 ml with all week nutrients @ 1 E.C. PH5.8 *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS----- V2: De los días 17 a 22 de crecimiento la planta ha girado un cuarto de giro, 90º. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Una semana más de crecimiento normal y constante, me gusta el ritmo en el que crece pues me da la impresión de que está teniendo un tiempo excelente para desarrollar el sistema radicular. De momento no he notado ningún color o cosas raras en las hojas, aún así este armario de cultivo no está totalmente aislado del exterior ya que está siempre semi-abierto en mi salón, y la puerta de mi terraza está abierta 24/7. Se la ve muy sana y equitativa, también tengo la sensación de que va a coger el tamaño perfecto para mantener el crecimiento bajito, justo un poco por encima del tiesto una vez hecho el topping. La semana que viene realizaré la primera poda y el primer topping. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 08/08/19 - 3.000 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 1 E.C. PH5.8

Lollipop lollipop, oh lollipop lollipop...lollipop. So I have worked my ass off ... again... I have lollipoped every branch.... I know week 4 /5 wtf .... I know stupid... but it is to combat the PM.... I'm fucking trying everything..... thank God I harvested that Critical Kush because I'm smoking it roughly dried.... and that really helps me forget about how I fucked this bitch up. But honestly she smells wonderful. So it's just colas. She I almost hollow on the inside... I got more at the top but .... I might be done... the K excess continues.... I have flushed probably 200+ gallons over 2 weeks time.. and she doesn't respond.... I believe the roots in the pot are different from the roots that have entered the ground underneath. Leading to my problem. 4 weeks left max .... I want to harvest early.....

We are at day 21 on this gorilla cookies. I think she would be quite a bit bigger if I didn't break one of the mains on week 2 but she is still chugging along and growing well. I upped the maxigro to .5 tsp per gallon and started them on a little armor si so they can build some strong branches. Still running them on 24 hour light and 24 hour irrigation. They are going to stay under the blurple lights for a few more weeks until I can get them in the big room under the quantum boards. I'm hoping they will flower around 4 weeks but my autos seem to enjoy staying in veg so we will see what happens.

Everything went according to plan. From germination the plant displayed a very good development. With no training I believe she gave a very good yield. She always looked very strong with no signs of any risk.

Good start to the week temps dropping slightly. Some light defoliation and tucked a few branches under the trellis for light penatration a little video in there looks like the stretch has calmed down focusing on producing flower now ... 09/12 a little problem went to find my trellis had come of the clips pulling my canopy into one big ball sorted it and put a pic up of the day after so no major problems or snapped branches luckily thanks for reading happy growing

last week was a stormy like one... it even occurred some hail at one point, as you can see the damages in the pics. since it was frequently and heavy raining I have not watered, and haven't give any nutrients, except a little bloom disc by royal queen seeds at the start of the week, but one day later it started changing the weather, so I don't know how much of effect it gave...
