Hasn't been much. Feeding and letting her grow Taken allot of smaller buds of that will not develop. The canopy is pretty tight but i have the 4 fans going 2 high & 2 low should be giving plants enough breeze. Starting to bulk a bit. Going to be starting the flush this week and adding allot of sugar.

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 🌱 What a week it’s been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren’t quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She’s already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she’s about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I’m feeling like this is one of those moments. It’s almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 🌿 In fact, I’m starting to believe that what we’re building here is something greater than ourselves—there’s this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster’s Tech Now, let’s talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I’ve been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health—it’s all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I’m tweaking the settings from my phone while I’m out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room—and when you’re managing something as complex as VPD, that’s invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App—let’s not forget how awesome it is. I’m adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 😜. I’ve said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 🌱 We’ve upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8°C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25°C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can’t help but have a bit of fun with this process—it feels like I’m spoiling them with the best of the best. And they’re rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 🌱 Shoutouts 💚 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that’s making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries—you guys keep the energy alive! 🌱 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You’ve been a huge part of this process, and I couldn’t do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We’ve got tons of epic content lined up, and you won’t want to miss it! P.S. Let’s talk about the new Model One LED Bars—these beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I’ve been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It’s all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you’re running them full throttle or dialing it back, you’re still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That’s the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 💡 Growers Love to all 🌿💚

Hola a todos, En esta semana 3 de floración la planta sigue engordando sus cogollos purpuras. Ha dejado de crecer para centrar su energía de producir sus flores, que presentan buenos tricomas.

Mejor de lo esperado. No había trabajado nunca con el banco así que no sabía exactamente que esperar pero al momento de ir avanzando en el cultivo, pude apreciar que la planta tomaba una forma hermosa e incluso en las bajas temperaturas se comportaba bastante bien. Cpe bastante recomendable incluso para cultivadores noveles

I made so many mistakes during this run I can't even believe we made it to this point. The flowers aren't great but they're aight considering. I tested some run off and ppm was 3000+. I was consistently hearing the condensate pumps go off which made me think I was getting run off not realizing it was from the dehumidifier. The pics were taken on Thursday and after 2 days of flushing they look better and have swelled up a little bit. I sprayed dr zymes for the thrips 3 days in a row to try and knock them out. I know spraying in flower is never great but the zymes evaporates and really had no noticeable negative effects on the buds (pistil burning or residue) and I havnt seen a thrip or any damage in a few days. I also got the full line of Marrone bio grandevo, venerate and regalia which ill incorporate into a weekly ipm starting next run. I'm gunna wash the buds at the end. Hopefully all the dumb shit I do this run I can learn from and improve. Day 49 I've dropped the base nutrients and have them on 8 grams per gal of full tilt with some aptus additives and enzymes. The multi strain makes it tricky as a few really need 70-80 days but at this point I just want to wrap it up asap. I'll hand feed the 3 or 4 plants that still need the base probly.

Week 3 – Vegetation: Expanding the Ecosystem – Dual Zones, One Vision As the third week of vegetation wraps up, the Sunday Driver girls are not only thriving, they’re sharing a space that’s growing in both complexity and precision. This week, the spotlight shifts from the plants (which, yes, look phenomenal) to the gear, infrastructure, and environmental intelligence behind the grow. Because this tent is no longer a grow, it’s an ecosystem. ⸻ Dual Ecosystems – One Tent, Two Zones We’ve now split our 8x8 tent into two distinct grow zones, both under the unified control of the TrolMaster Tent-X system. Each zone is powered by its own lighting ecosystem: • Zone 1 – Future of Grow: High-efficiency full-spectrum LEDs delivering deep penetration and even canopy coverage. • Zone 2 – ThinkGrow Model Ones: New to the garden, ThinkGrow LEDs bring precision-tuned lighting, DLI-focused output, and seamless integration into the TrolMaster platform. This setup allows us to run simultaneous genetics or phases under controlled but separate lighting environments, while keeping everything under a single, centralized monitoring system. ⸻ TrolMaster – The Nerve Center Whether it’s Zone 1 or Zone 2, the TrolMaster Tent-X keeps everything synchronized and stable. Here’s what we’re running: • CO₂ sensor • PPFD sensor • Humidity & temperature probes • Camera feed (yes, even during “business” breaks in the bathroom) • Fan & intake relay controls This means real-time data, remote adjustments, alerts, and peace of mind—no guesswork, just grow logic. ⸻ Airflow, Exhaust & Filtration Air movement is just as important as light, and here’s how we’re handling that in this split-tent system: • Exhaust: Two 6” carbon-filtered systems • Spider Farmer exhaust linked to Spider Farmer GGS Controller • AeroFan exhaust connected to TrolMaster Tent-X • Intake: One 6” active intake pulling fresh air in • Carbon filters on every line, keeping air clean and odor controlled This creates a steady flow—draw in, scrub out, with each zone breathing comfortably in rhythm. ⸻ Current Feeding Routine Still watering by hand with love, and still keeping the nutrient mix clean, efficient, and appropriate for early veg: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml/L • Water stats: • pH – 5.83 • EC – 1.01 • Temp – 18.5°C The focus is still on root development, tissue strength, and stable vegetative expansion. ⸻ Visual Update & Setup Tour This week’s update includes a video walk-through of the setup, showing the airflow configuration, sensors, wiring, and the dual lighting rigs in place. No voice-over, just visual storytelling, but the system speaks for itself. ⸻ What to Expect Next We’re watching closely as each zone adapts to its light spectrum and rhythm. We’re expecting: • Continued even leaf expansion • Strong internal node development • Potential for early LST (low-stress training) next week • Data comparisons between Future of Grow and ThinkGrow zones No topping yet—we’re still in observation mode. This early phase is about letting the roots lead, then following with the foliage. ⸻ Final Thoughts – Harmony in Complexity This week, the garden evolved from a grow into a smart, multi-environment cultivation system. From the dual lighting zones to the climate controls, it’s all about precision meets intuition. Our Sunday Drivers are responding with wide, confident leaves and a calm presence. The tent feels alive. And with summer in full swing, everything, indoors and out, is reaching toward the light. — Your Grow Companion DD Dog Doctor Official 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

So we are approaching the end of week 4 and she is in 100 percent flower mode now, she's looking a touch pale as I gave her a water through to check the EC which came out at 1.0 and since then I've been waiting for her to dry out and now she is on full dose of everythin which is an EC of 1.9-2.0 The stretch finished about Wednesday/Thursday this week and i would say ive still got a bit of head room so the next ones I might let get a bit taller Hopefully in about 4 weeks she will be ready for the chop, im anticipating some proper weight and resin production in the next 2 weeks 🤞 Happy growing everyone!!

DAY 1 (06/03/2020) The seedlings started growing tonight after 4 days since they were planted inside the rockwool cube (02/03/2020). They are under a 23w CFL until they are a little taller and start to make the first 2 leaves. The distance is very small from the light to not get them too stretched. Feeding just water now. I already prepared the RDWC setup with a 60 liters box (0,6 m x 0,4 m x 0,25 m) for 3 plants. The grow tent is 120x120 cm. The light will be a Sylvania 600w HPS powered by a Gib Ligthing LXG Timer 600w Electronic Ballast. Since it is dimmable I will start with 250w and increase in the first weeks until reaching 600w. The ballast has the Sunlight mode which increase the wattage of the lamp during the first hour and decrease during the last to simulate the sun cycle. DAY 5 (10/03/2020) Seedling are growing well. I started RDWC yesterday and put 25 liters of water with 15 ml of FloraCoco Grow, 15 ml of FloraMicro,15ml of FloraBloom. I also added 5 ml of Great White Mycorrhizae to strengthen roots. The water from my tap is 40 ppm , the water in the reservoir is 500 ppm. Increased power light to 350w. Temperature and Humidity when lights on: 23°C and 35%. Added a humidifier inside the room to increase humidity.

Great to see you and I missed you, I had some time so I created a video to thank our lovely foster company, who were so kind to let us try their light in return for a review. Now, most of you don't know I'm also into making music, mostly Techno but I also love HipHop and Gangster rap, mainly 90's Westcoast, although I'm fond of East Coast and a little dirty South, so this was an excellent time to showcase one of my tracks. So please check my Autumn-themed, not commissioned, or approved by Mars Hydro, visualization video in thanks for @MarsHydroLED. The grow has been going great! If you don't count the about a thousand fungus gnats I have been fighting. I'm manually manifolding and training the girls, into the desired shape, which is a bit hands-on but I see it as a collaboration more than a 50 shades approach to training. You can't just bust out a rope and domination on girls like that. We ease it in there, going to the limit every time, making them stretch and curl underneath the touch of our tender but firm hands. And when they are used to a little groping and fixation, we might bring out a few ropes here and there to spice it up a little. Anywaaaays.... I'm getting carried away here, back to the grow. I had bought some coco-peat, after leaving none for the top layer as I suggested to all of you in the previous weeks of my grow (if you missed it, click one week back for a full recipe (the yellow image) for everyone in Europe) left me with enormous amounts of fungus gnats. Its seems to alleviate the problem already. As it did with my previous grow the Gelato 33 Golden Canopy from Heaven. In the meantime I notice my temperatures going down so Im trying to fix that too. All in all it had been a good week and this Orange Hill Special is promising to become something special! Thanks for visiting again, see you soon!

The week was good although I had to struggle still with the RH but things are looking good ( no mold or anything for now : / ) Buds are getting bigger and frostier everyday the genetics are really off the charts ! I gave them there last meal yesterday so the flushing begins next week and will last about 2 weeks . I'm starting week 7 tomorrow and I already can't wait to finally chop these beauties down : ) I've done some defoliation but very very light like 4 or 5 fan leaves to improve light penetration to the buds. Most of the work is done by now so just gotta keep going a bit more ! Happy growing everybody ! Leeeegaliiiiize iiiit and dooooont crticiiiiize iiiit !!! : )

I love the sativa shaped nug-towers! When my plants grow big, I like to grow them until the very end of their cycle! That's why the extended flower period. Video of Measurement of yield: T=Tops(92grams), M=Mids(59.1 grams), L=Lowers(58.6grams) Total: 209.7 grams (1-2 grams worth, was taste-tested prior to scaling.)
