She is getting fat! What a great plant she is - again, little to no deficiencies, other than some light burn but I could not complain to have such strong genetics for my first ever grow! Trichomes are not too cloudy, so still a while to go but what an AUTO!

Ein pheno konnte schon geerntet werden von der fast Diesel von Izi

D58/F8 - 11.14 - Showing her sex and stretching still <3 Recovered very well from defoliation D62/F12 - 11.18 - <3

22/11/22 - Most plants starting to have yellow sites, pre flower approaching soon! Just waiting to see some pistils before moving onto bloom nutes 25/11/22 - last heavy defoliation and light training - moved onto bloom Nutes for the remaining 3 days of the week Per 5L 20ml Bloom A+B 10ml Voodoo 10ml Piranha 10ml Bud Candy

Fue un extendido cultivo,por problemas en un momento por problemas con el medidor de ph. Tuvo sobrefertilizacion y devido al tiempo que ocupe en recuperarla se extendió este cultivo. Muy buena cepa,de internudos cortos,buena resina y delicioso aroma. Sin duda aprendí mucho mas con este ejemplar de seet seed Sad s1...lo bueno de todo es que ya se probó y esta buenísima. Ya me la imagino cuando tenga un buen curado. Ahora a curar y a disfrutar esta rica weed.

Only 4cm vertical growth this week, but it has been at 12/12 now. Feeding with 6-12-36 powdered fertiliser now, lets see how she likes it.

So far so good 🤘 Blumat watering system works great. No feeding other than water. Might do a little compost tea later. Le système d’arrosage automatique Blumat fonctionne nickel, pas de nutriments autre que de l’eau. On fera ptet un ptit thé de compost plus tard.

I am finding it difficult to get my camera to take photos and videos with the proper colour hence the double videos! It is unreal how thicc these are getting!! They smell wonderful! The other two plants are starting to show a bit more of their red/purple colours too! Noticing a bit of potassium stress from feeding but since they are nearly finished (I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE THAT!) I am only going to pull back a bit. They just need to survive another 14-21 days by the looks of them!

Cal mag do the job

Week 7 Flower | 12/12 From Seed Nectar Drip — Bulk, Frost & the Quiet Finish No drama this round. No chasing deficiencies. No heavy corrections. No unnecessary stress. Just stable roots, stable feed, stable environment — and plants doing exactly what healthy plants are supposed to do when you stop interrupting them. This run was built on simplicity from day one. 12/12 from seed. No veg extension. No topping. No high-stress shaping. No aggressive stripping. Just early guidance, clean structure, consistent watering, and enough light to let each plant express itself without wasting energy rebuilding from stress. That decision shaped everything we’re seeing now. By removing the recovery time that usually comes with topping, overtraining, or prolonged veg, these plants never had to pause and re-prioritize. They rooted, established, stretched, set flower, and transitioned directly into production mode. No detours. No wasted momentum. Just one continuous push from seed to flower. And now, in Week 7 flower, it shows. The canopy is heavy. The flowers are swelling. The resin is stacking hard. The fade has started. And the room is finishing with exactly the kind of top-to-bottom consistency this run was built for. ⸻ From Seed to Here — Why This Run Behaved Like It Did This room was never pushed for speed. It was built for continuity. That’s the difference. 12/12 from seed changes the entire rhythm of development. Instead of forcing long vegetative expansion and then asking the plant to completely shift gears, this approach keeps the metabolism focused and directional from the start. The plants stay efficient. Internodes stay tighter. Stretch stays controlled. Energy gets allocated earlier. And instead of building oversized frames that need correction later, the plant builds only what it intends to finish. That’s why this room developed the way it did. Not the biggest plants. Not the tallest plants. But highly efficient plants. Compact structure. Controlled vertical growth. Dense flower sites. Less wasted lower growth. Less larf. More usable biomass. That efficiency is exactly why they are carrying weight now. And because they were never heavily interrupted, resin production stayed consistent too. No major stress events, no stalled metabolism, no repeated recovery cycles. Just stable uptake, stable transpiration, and uninterrupted flower development. That’s where the frost comes from. Not magic. Not hype. Consistency. Stable roots feed stable flowers. Stable flowers stack stable resin. ⸻ Feed Strategy — Simple, Stable, Boring (and Exactly Why It Works) The feed is still intentionally simple, and that is the point. At this stage, the plants are not asking for complexity. They are asking for consistency. So instead of overloading the root zone with ten competing inputs, the approach stays clean, predictable, and easy for the plant to process. Current feed (per liter): * Terra Grow — 2.5 ml/L * Pure Zym — 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L * CalMag Pro — 1 ml/L * Power Buds — 1 ml/L * Green Sensation — 1 ml/L That’s it. Simple inputs. Stable ratios. No chaos in the root zone. Why each one is here: Terra Grow (2.5 ml/L) Still holding the base. Even this late, a controlled amount of nitrogen matters. Enough to support photosynthesis and maintain metabolic function, but not enough to keep the plant too green or delay senescence. At this stage, it is no longer feeding growth — it is supporting function. Pure Zym (1 ml/L) Quietly doing the dirty work in the root zone. Enzyme support helps break down residual organic matter, keeps the substrate cleaner, improves root-zone efficiency, and helps maintain smooth uptake late into flower when consistency matters most. Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) Used here to support terpene expression, aroma development, and overall secondary metabolite production. Not magic in a bottle — just one more gentle nudge toward stronger expression in the final weeks. CalMag Pro (1 ml/L) Still important under strong lighting and consistent transpiration. At this stage it is less about “fixing deficiency” and more about maintaining transport stability, cell integrity, and keeping the plant moving cleanly through the finish. Power Buds (1 ml/L) Supports flower-site commitment and reinforces reproductive focus. At this point it is less about creating sites and more about helping the plant continue investing in the ones already built. Green Sensation (1 ml/L) This is the finisher. PK support, density support, sugar movement, and late-stage flower swelling. Right now this is one of the key drivers behind the visible bulking and weight gain. Nothing excessive. Nothing aggressive. Just enough to keep the engine running clean while the plant finishes what it already decided to build. That’s the entire strategy. Stable EC. Stable pH. Stable uptake. Let the plant do the rest. ⸻ Environment — Guided by Plants First, Numbers Second This room is running warm, steady, and honest. Around 26°C with ~60% RH, stable root-zone temperatures, consistent irrigation, and strong air exchange. On paper, some growers will immediately point at VPD charts. That’s fine. But charts do not grow plants. Plants do. Room VPD is useful. Leaf VPD is more useful. And real plant behavior matters more than both. The leaves are praying. Transpiration is stable. Uptake is stable. Resin is building. Flowers are swelling. Nothing is stalling. So the room is not judged by theory alone. It is judged by response. Numbers guide. Plants decide. And right now, the plants are very clearly saying yes. ⸻ Under Canopy Lighting — One of the Biggest Differences in This Run This is one of the clearest upgrades in the room. The under canopy lighting is doing exactly what it was meant to do: keeping lower flower sites productive, reducing weak lowers, and allowing the plant to finish far more evenly from top to bottom. That matters more now than ever. Late flower usually exposes the weak parts of structure. Lower sites fall behind. Shaded flowers stay airy. The top wins. The bottom gets left behind. That is not what happened here. This room is finishing with noticeably better lower-site density, stronger mid-canopy development, and far less separation between top buds and lower buds. Not identical — but much closer. And that means more usable flower, more uniform ripening, and less waste at harvest. The top still leads. But the bottom is no longer irrelevant. That is a major win. ⸻ What We’re Seeing Now This is the transition every healthy flower room should earn. The green is fading. The fans are beginning to surrender. Nutrients are being reallocated. Calyxes are swelling. Resin heads are thickening. Aroma is deepening. Weight is climbing. This is not decline. This is completion. The fade is not a problem to correct. It is the plant finishing on purpose. And paired with the resin production we’re seeing now, this is exactly where these girls should be. They are not just ripening. They are closing. ⸻ What to Expect Next Week Next week should be all about consolidation. Less vertical movement. Less new growth. More density. More oil. More finish. Expect: * continued calyx swelling * stronger late frost production * deeper aroma development * more visible fade through fans and lowers * slower water demand as the finish approaches * heavier flowers and firmer structure across the room At this point, the work is mostly done. Now it is about staying out of the way, keeping the root zone clean, keeping inputs stable, and letting the plants close properly. No panic. No chasing. No overcorrection. Just finish clean. ⸻ Shoutout Corner Big love to everyone walking this one with us. To the platform for giving growers a place to document the real process. To the community for the time, support, questions, conversations, and shared experience. To the day-ones, the regulars, and the silent followers who have been here since the first leaf. To the new faces just arriving now. To the growers learning. To the growers teaching. To the ones showing love. To the ones watching quietly. To the skeptics. To the critics. To the lurkers. To the haters too. If this took even a second of your time, it mattered. Energy is energy, and none of it goes unnoticed. To the genetics for doing what good genetics do. To the tools that help us read them. To the sponsors who support the work. To the growers who keep showing up. Respect all around. See you next week for the close. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Hello everybody! Here we are a week later and I’m starting to see some nice improvements and developments. This week I fed all plants pretty heavily with Recharge and Dolomite Lime (and a little Cal Mag). The plants seemed to like it, the color is really coming back to a nice shade of green instead of the pale yellow’ish green. The FastBuds Blackberry is a beautiful shade of purple. I’m going back to my normal nutrient routine for one more week then I'll flush for a week before cutting her down. The 2 Blackberry's I cut down last week were kind of scrawny, but I did smoke one of the main cola buds and it was tastier than I expected, very fruity. It also got me HIGH AF!! I'm looking forward to how this last one finishes up. One negative is I seem to have inherited some bugs from my wife. She asked me to put one of her outdoor plants in the room so it would survive the winter, well it looks like that plant was infested with bugs. The little f’ers had a feast on some of the leaves. My wife gave me the OK to toss the plant, so with the plant removed it should be fairly easy to irradiate any remaining bugs with some sticky paper. I’d like to say thank you to all who answered my question regarding recommend reading on cannabis. I’m selecting the answer for the Grow Bible by Greg Green because I was actually unaware of that one. I’m familiar with the Cervantes and Rosenthal versions but not Greg Greens. I’ll be ordering that book after I receive and finish “True Living Organics” by The Rev (should be here tomorrow). This week I have a new question for my GD friends…. CO2? I have not been using CO2 but EVERY book I read recommends using it, I’m not prepared to go out and buy a CO2 tank, regulator, etc… at this time. Has anyone ever used one of those CO2 bags? Or do you have any DIY CO2 solutions you can recommend? I’m looking forward to your answers on CO2. I’ll leave you this week with another interesting excerpt from “Marijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yields” by Read Spear: “I prefer to use high-pressure sodium lamps. With the exception of LED's, HPS lamps are the most efficient source of light you can buy, both in terms of light output and light spectrum. Having read nearly every book on the subject of growing pot, I feel that their authors tend to overemphasize the importance of light spectrum. You do not need to alternate between metal halides (for growth) and sodiums (for flowering). That is an oversimplification of the plant's light requirements. You may do this if you like--it certainly won't hurt--but I firmly believe that the gains are just not great enough to justify the cost of the extra MH lamp.” -Read Spear

All good.

I do less nutrients during this week and treated as if it’s weak one because as you know, I use fox forms ocean forest and it has nutrients in it so I don’t wanna overpower my plants and I just wanna see how they do with a little bit of nutrients before I upped the dosage

The main purpose of chlorophyll is to capture photons of energy. When growth is no longer a priority for a plant in nature, it will naturally sink its "no longer needed" nitrogen and switch pigments to carotene and anthocyanin, which are better-suited pigments for environmental protection rather than capturing photons (growth). This is because of all nutrients used by a plant, nitrogen in its nitrate form is highly stable and required for the rigours of electron capture, ammoniacal nitrogen readily evaporates into the air during cure/dry. The ripening stage is no longer about growth, but the main priority is protecting trichomes and opening up the oxidative capacity of the plant so it can focus 100% of filling those trichomes. Nitrogen in its elemental nitrate form is no longer required during ripening to the same degree as it was; the vast majority of growth is over. Understanding when to shift a plant's focus from rapid growth to maturation is the key to maximizing the trichome quality and terpene profile of the final product. That is the single most important decision you will make during a grow in terms of dictating smoothness, taste, and smell, I have found from my limited years of dedicated and driven study into the matter. Synthetic nutrients maintain a near full nitrate ratio comparable to ammoniacal nitrogen, whereas organic nutrients maintain a supply of ammoniacal and convert only to nitrate what is needed. This is far more beneficial for organic growers when it comes to smoke smoothness, as the higher levels of ammoniacal nitrogen are far easier to dispose/convert than nitrates come harvest, cure/dry with far more efficient margins held within leaf/bud when it comes to conversion to aminos. A good dry and cure can go a long way to a quality smooth smoke, but without a proper senescence sequence or triggered autophagic sink of nitrogen, then you will be asking far more than can be expected from a dry/cure. It's one thing to sink the last 5-10% and convert the last drips to amino acids during the dry and cure, but leaving the plant fully charged with nitrogen in the form of nitrate is simply not going to taste good, no matter how much smoke you blow up your own ass or how long you have been growing. Means nothing. Smoke quality relies on pre-harvest physiology, not just the dry and cure! The dry and cure cannot fix poor pre-harvest metabolic states. A high-quality, smooth smoke requires correct signalling before harvest. While a proper dry and cure can gently soften the edges and convert the last 5-10% of sugars into amino acids, it fundamentally cannot perform magic on a fully fertilised plant. You cannot oxidise stable nitrates (+5 charge) into a smoother state during drying. Ultimately, accept it's going to be a heavy smoke and be grateful, onwards upwards! The way in which ammoniacal nitrogen reacts to carbon sugars is critical in how it acts during oxidation and is responsible for oxidizing leftover sugars that can make the buds smoke harshly. Limited ammoniacal equals limited oxidation of excess carbons held within tissues. Just so you know, it's not an anecdotal rule that's unresolved and unsubstantiated. It's called the Maillard reaction. Signal triggers and stressors. Normally, you can only use 10-30% ammoniacal nitrogen, but as harvest closes, it is beneficial to increase this ratio 50% of ammoniacal as it assists in steering the plant towards maturation. Rather than running 50% ammoniacal nitrogen continuously until harvest, use it in short, targeted flushes/additions (e.g., 7 days) to slow internode elongation and hasten maturity. Use alongside forced larger "dry backs" (allowing the root zone to dry out significantly between watering events). Raising the Electrical Conductivity EC of the medium to create mild osmotic stress. Widening the day-to-night temperature difference and increasing the vapour pressure deficit VPD. How would you like your cola's sir? Arm length, please, no gaps with trichomes as thick as snow.

Das Wetter ist seit 14 Tagen sehr schlecht. Extremer Regen, Hagel, bedeckter Himmel. Tagsüber 15°C, Nachts runter auf 10-12°C. Der Sommer kommt ja hoffentlich noch…

Stand Tag 30

Second week of flower done, the kids have shot up, pretty much doubled in size so far, plants well into stretch mode, nice top feed of Bat shit and Dr organics secret sauce! Lovely shades of green amongst the canopy, same again, no training or defoliation, and that’s hopefully the way it stops throughout the grow, untill next time

Gave her a nice LST+Defoliation session after the week 1 of flower stretch! She's currently drinking a 1 gallon dosage of the above listed nutes, every 4-5 days!
