🌸 BlueBerry – Week 4 Flower Report Grower’s Journal – Zamnesia BlueBerry | Entry 009 ⸻ 🌱 The Girls at Week 4 Both BlueBerry #1 and #2 are officially in their bloom stride. • Structure: Stocky, balanced, strong branching. • Stacking: Bud sites are forming beautifully and starting to swell. • Frosting: Trichome production has begun — the first glitters catching the light. They almost look like mirror images, which is a testament to the stability of these genetics. Every node is stacking just right, making this run a true delight to watch evolve. ⸻ 💡 Under-Canopy Lights – The Hidden Secret This week the under-canopy lights are proving their worth. Not only are the tops shining, but even the lowers are receiving enough energy to thrive. This setup is creating: • Even growth across the whole plant. • Healthier lower buds, not just popcorn. • A canopy that feels alive from top to bottom. It’s a real ecosystem of light, every layer glowing and working together. ⸻ Environment – Hot, Hot, Hot Now, let’s talk about the truth of summer growing: the heat. Temperatures are climbing so much that even taking pictures becomes a challenge. Let’s say this: by the time I’ve finished shooting the girls, I’m almost in “summer beachwear” mode 🌞👕😂. The garden is so warm and alive that it feels like stepping into a tropical bloom paradise, except instead of palm trees, I’m surrounded by BlueBerry flowers. Humidity stays in balance, sensors are working, and despite the warmth, the girls are thriving. ⸻ 🌿 Atmosphere & Gear As always, the ecosystem setup is running smooth: • TrolMaster brain + sensors keeping us updated. • Spider Farmer + Aero Fans ensuring airflow in & out. • Filters keeping everything fresh. • LEDs (Future of Grow + ThinkGrow + Lumatek Zeus) pushing flower formation with perfect spectrum balance. Every piece is connected, every reading aligned — it’s not just a grow tent, it’s a living orchestra of technology and nature working together. ⸻ ✨ The Fun Side – Amnesia Moment A little shoutout: taking care of the BlueBerry girls sometimes makes me forget the world outside (Amnesia closes, let’s call it that 😉). Between the heat, the scent of early terpenes, and the hypnotic way flowers are forming, time disappears in the room. That’s the beauty of it — it’s not just gardening, it’s a whole-body, whole-heart experience. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – Into Week 5 Next week, I expect: • Flowers to bulk up heavily. • Terpenes to become more noticeable, filling the room with the classic BlueBerry perfume. • Trichomes to coat the buds more visibly. • Room adjustments as needed once the AC comes into play, stabilizing the heat. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 4 flower is the turning point — where the story moves from stretch to stack, from structure to sparkle. Both BlueBerries are stunning, almost identical, and thriving under both canopy and under-canopy light. Yes, the heat makes it a sweaty job (half-naked photoshoot vibes 😅), but the result is worth it: strong, healthy, beautifully evolving BlueBerry ladies. From genetics to gear, from environment to experience — everything is tuned for success. And now, it’s just about letting them shine. 🌸✨ DD (DogDoctor)🌱💚 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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.

They're really starting to bush out, I think I'm liking the topping of all tops on the whole plant 1 time. Makes it easy to train as well. We'll see how they compare in harvest amount to my LST long veg plants.

This week was the last time i have fertilized, and from next week onwards they will only be given a little Canna Cannazym. I think it will take them about 2 weeks to finish.

The final Week, before harvest! She has some massive towering buds! 2.5 gallons of water is lasting this plant 5-6 days before drying out, and ready for more.. She was harvested instead of being watered!

Hi Growmies So here we have it , the end is nigh !. After and interesting 99 Days from seed and 70 days in their flowering phase of an expected 63. It is not unusual to pass the stated times and even early harvest on occasions so I am not hung up about the timing and is another reason that I use the trichromes as a guide to the right time to pull them. The #1 has definitely reached her harvest window now with some Amber tricks now being visible on checking. She looks so sweet now and I did begin to trim her up a little before I started the update pics. I do plan on using the bowl trimmer for speed this run and will video how it goes for the next update. I hate trim-jail so will use the spinner to help. Some of the buds look a bit small low down and I expect drying will shrink them to a Nug but all adds to final yield. I am not too stoked about the overall bud sizes and suspect the products did have an effect on that outcome for me but tje quality and number are its saving grace . The #2 Lady is looking chunkier than her sister although not as big in footprint. Her trichromes are beginning to cloud now so I expect at least another week before her harvest is due #3 is the most impressive for looks and appeal for sure. , she is covered in medium sized colas amd has some of the purpled leaves that the strain is known for. She is also as frosty as hell to highlight her even more. Like #2 she needs the ripening time now so I expect next update to be the final before harvest results. It has been a simple grow with no real dramas to contend with. Thanks for riding along with me. Be well.

She did quite well for being grown in a 9L pot and got a decent root structure. Because there where 4 plants in the tent this one suffered a bit and got squashed out the way. But she still did a good solid yield.

SCROGING is an amazing technique that I will get better at but this being my first real attempt I clearly see how important it is to get everything cleaned up under the net. I’m not touching anything now and I’ll just do better next time. Anyways my garden looks really good, and the buds look real good and my canopy is pretty even. I mean it’s 4 or 5 inches off and if I would have tucked one more time I could have got things a bit more even. The Grand daddy purples buds are definitely going to be lighter. The vanilla frostings buds are going to dense and thick. If I take what I’ve seen from the past couple harvests my light will really turn these buds into little dense monsters. The viperspectra PAR1200 is a good light and makes heavy dense buds. I highly recommend the PAR1200 for a 3 x 3 space. Happy 420! Update - I think I missed 1 week in my grow. Today’s the last day of week 4 and I gave the girls a little trim today and cleaned those big fan leaves off. What a difference a little trim makes! I took these new photos about 8 hours after their trim. All those buds sites that were being covered reached out and here’s a few pictures of what was underneath. Have a great weekend!

It was time. Her trichomes are cloudy as the weather today, with just a couple ambers. Total wet weight of the buds was 390g 😳😳😳 I kept 200g for myself. The rest was sliced, diced and was given to the worms. After drying, there should be about 40g. Have I said already how much I hate this local law 😭 She smells delicious nonetheless! And is as sticky as a yellow fly trap 😂 Had hoped for more color though. Next time I run her, I'll see if I can keep the temps under 25c. The stalk and stems were all pink and I suspected the rubarb color was from Mg deficiency, but she persisted through 1.5g/l of Epsom Salts, so I concluded she wasn't deficient. She was a true pink pheno! ----------------------------------------------------- It was a fun experience, with a couple challenges during the grow! Definitely repeating this cultivar in the future! Thank you Kannabia for this amazing strain!! Thank you Spider Farmer for the amazing gear!! Thank you Plagron for your amazingly stable nutrients and medium!! 😍😍😍

July 1st germination day Things went well. Started her in paper towel, She split the next day. Had a tap root on day 4 and placed her in her forever home. Popped out of the soil on day 6 and looks very happy. Soil is Vegetable and Herb mix from the store with a bit of perlite mixed in for aeration.

Final de la sexta semana, corto la primera con 40 días. El resto están sacando los pelillos marrones, unas mas unas menos. Parece que falta poco, olor fuerte.
