Aug 31: she looks pretty close to done but I’ll see how much longer I can hold out on harvest. Chemdawg is a personal fave strain for effect and taste so I’m really looking forward to this one. Sep 1: still fighting the urge to harvest. Maybe next weekend. Nice weather and lots of sun lately so might be good to keep it going for a bit longer. Sep 2: harvest a small branch with three buds. Itching for some fresh stuff. Found my small scale and the branch and three buds weighs 8 g wet.

Day 58 - I started seeing these yellow/brow spots, maybe its a calcium deficiency? I have been giving her calcium so it could be a ph problem. I´m also worried because my neighbor tree has leaf septoria so it could be it aswell, i will keeping a real close eye. Last night rained heavily, so today i sprayed her again w/ Botryprot. Humidity here is really high, i think it´s already helping! Next 3 days will continue raining. When raining stops, i´ll spray when possible. Day 61 - Today i fed her the above chart. We are in week 3, so i cut Fish-mix as she´s focusing on her flowers now. The deficiency stopped developing so im happy, but im always seeing crickets on my plant. I remove all of them by hand, regardless every time i get back i see 3 at least. They are loving the blueberry. Forgot to mention i added acti-vera this time, to help stalks get stronger and healthier. Let´s see how she reacts to it, when she was young she didn´t enjoyed acti-vera Day 64 - These last days have been very hot, with a maximum of 30ºC. Will feed her tomorrow at the beginning of week 4. Will keep same feeding, she didn´t complaint about acti-vera now. :)

Thanks in advance 😉! -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- V1: TimeLapse week video, at second 24 I changed the lights to full operation (notice the color change), so since mid week I'm using the full 180W instead the 90W for growing. Also today (Week 11), I purchased the Platinum P450 model to replace the P300 I have. I still don't know if I'm going to place both lights together to end this grow, or if just replace the P300 and use it to grow another plant in my 60x60 tent. P6: al the plants are bending a bit, I just placed a tutor over the BlueBerry B because is the one that is bending itself more. Just a 3D printed base with a chinese chopstick. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- This week I changed the lights to full flora mode as is recommended by the manufacturer for late vegetative grow. They are still growing at a very good speed more than a cm per day, soon I will perform a full LST on one of them and also I will place the SCROG mesh to try to match the height of the colas. At time the 4 plants (All the cookies) are +/- the same height, but soon the BlueBerries will be bigger than the Oceans. I see a bit overfeeding in the leaves aspect, it must be due to the guano and volcanic soil I added to Soil mix. In a couple of weeks they will look very beauty and healthy. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 05/10/19 DAY 34 - 1 l with all week nutrients @ (1.3 EC | PH 6.2 | 24.9ºc) *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS----- V1: Video TimeLapse semanal, en el segundo 24 cambio las luces a full flora (se nota en el cambio de color de la imagen), así que a partir de mitad de semana empezaré a usar los 180W de mi luminaria en vez de los 90W que venía consumiendo en crecimiento. Esta semana (Semana 11) he comprado una mejora de luces, he comprado el modelo P450 de Platinum que reemplazará al P300 que estoy usando. Aún no se si voy a dejar ambas luces juntas para acabar este cultivo, o si simplemente reemplazaré el P300, y este lo usaré para crecer otra cosa en mi armario de 60x60. P6: Las plantas se están doblando un poco, sólo he colocado un tutor en la BlueBerry B pues es la que más se está doblando de todas. Simplemente he impreso una base en 3D y le he puesto un palillo chino. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Esta semana cambio el modo de la luminaria a flora, pues es lo recomendado por el fabricante para la última etapa de crecimiento. Siguen creciendo a una velocidad excelente, más de 1 cm por día, pronto pondré la malla de SCROG para intentar ajustar la altura de las cola. Por el momento las 4 plantas (todas las cookies) son más o menos d la misma altura, pero pronto las BlueBerry pasarán en altura a las Ocean. Puedo ver un poco de sobrealimentación por el aspecto de las hojas, debe ser debido a la tierra volcánica y el guano que le añadí al sustrato. En un par de semanas se verán super sanas y bonitas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 05/10/19 DÍA 34 - 1 l con todos los nutrientes semanales @ (1,3 EC | PH 6,2 | 24,9ºc)

Growth continues. Buds are starting to fill out and have started to see some pistils turning red. have lowered the nutes in the solution by a small amount and CO2 has been lowered. AND I did not put it back into Veg. It just tagged it that way and I can't change it.

This strain gave us no problems, very simple to grow! The plants both stayed small and bushy until flower, then they took off. We will be back to adjust the weight and add more comments. 8/14/21 - The buds are done curing and it’s 🔥 Smooth and flavorful 💨 We finally smoked it and couldn’t finish a joint lol. It’s a lot stronger than we anticipated. I love indica strains and this is now one of my favorites. Next up we have 2 Lemon Kush and 2 Gelato growing outdoors as a side project in between indoor LED grows. Blueberry from seedsman was so simple to grow. We messed up on a few things but we got plenty of nice buds and made 2lbs of butter for edibles. -FIN-

Chop Time

Vamooos familia, y es que nuestras gorillas girl de sweet seeds son increíbles, tienen un grosor de 7mm en el tallo a mitades, brutal, y eso que las tenemos en 5,5litros. Ph controlado en 6,5 tenemos humedad y temperatura dentro de los parámetros, pronto empezaremos aportar overdrive ya que es una cepa la cual sacaremos el máximo partido a las flores. Me a flipado mucho el crecimiento en si de esta sativa, tienen pocas hojas y son bastante grandes en comparación al resto.

Genetics = Too much GAK (TMZ(Candy Fumez x Zkittles) x Sour GAK) from Bloom Genetics Pheno 1 Terps are very much Candy Fumez u get a nice blend of the Z and Sherbanger terps. 45-90u Doublebagged in 35 and 120u Graveda bags Pressed first at 75°C and a 2nd time at 80°C. First press was 5,65g and 2nd press was 0,5 which i dabbed right away. Makes it a ~1,2% return on the lower quality. I entered with 7,65g icolator so it translated 80% or 6,15g rosin. 90-160u Doublebagged in 2 x 20u Rosin Evolution bags. Pressed first at 75°C and a 2nd time at 80°C. First press was 4g like i hoped for and 2nd press was only 0,2 which i dabbed right away and had really nice high. Started with 5,35g icolator and got 79% or 4,2g rosin.Makes premium quality return ~0,8% from fresh frozen, which makes the tmg#1 return roughly 2% in total. Terps on the 90-160u are more subtle for now, but maybe that means i dont lose all the terps curing. Keeping it in the fridge and will only whip when it butters up. Pheno 3 Terps are also very Candy Fumez heavy, but more gas than the first pheno. She also dropped almost no 90-160u, so i mixed it with the 45-90u and made a full spectrum 45-160u. Doublebagged in 2 x 20u Rosin Evolution bags. Pressed first time at 75°C and 2nd time at 80°C. First press dropped 12g and 2nd press 1,5g. Started with 15,36g Icolator wich i pressed to 13,5g or 88% rosin. I also got 0,9g melt left over in a Jar wich melted away completely. Got 2,94% rosin from wet flower, which would be very good for me, but i am a little sad i only got 45-90u trichomes.

These plants are starting to blow up. 💣 These are some very healthy looking plants but what else can be expected from such stable genes.🤷‍♂️🏽 just removed some lower most branches, everything below where o first topped really. ✂️ just a few more weeks before the flip to flower.🌺

Feeding 850ppm every 2 days runoff @700ppm

Praying my girls are not all in different stages of dying 😭More to follow... 1/9/21 These girls were finally dry enough to water I weighed each post before and after watering. I am going to try weighing the pots and water when the weight is about half as dry.as I normally do. So Maybe I should water @ 3lbs heavier... somewhere between 8-9lbs 1/10 I changed the light cycle so that my "night time" is in the middle of the day for heating reason, so this morning when I woke up, after being under the lights for 18 hours I actually had growth on two plants. Gorilla Glue and my photo plant Chocoloope that is growing with the autos. They were both under the VIPARSPECTRA 2020 Pro Series P1000 LED Grow Light. The other two plants were under BLOOMSPECT Double Chips Series 1500W LED Grow Light Full Spectrum. I wish I hadn't made so many mistakes with this grow because I know there is no way to know if it is the light that made them grow better than the other two or they were just a little healthier. I don't think so because Gorilla Glue is the worst plant and she actually grew but who knows. Anyways I switched the plants around so they are under the opposite light when their day time starts and we will just have to see. PE Length 8' Height 7' Width 8.5" Dry weight 6lb 4oz Wet weight 13lb 11oz GG Length 8" Height 7" Width 8.5" Dry weight 5lb 14 oz- Wet weight 11lb NB Length 11" Height 10 " Width 10.5" Dry weight 6lb 9 oz Wet weight 12lb Choco Length " Height Width " Dry weight Wet weight 1/11/21 DAY 46S HELP if ANYONE SEES THIS .... last night I decided not to switch the plants around after all, but I did rearrange the tent because I had a plug running through door and I am still struggling to regulate the humidity and temp. I thought I still had good air circulation but apparently I did not and the plants are not happy. Gorilla Glue is not going to make it. She turned real dark green after watering her on Saturday, she had a small amount of growth Sunday but now all the leaves are laying down. I don't know if I should use Sledge hammer but after flushing a week ago letting her dry for a week and then watering Saturday I don't know if I flushed her with sledge hammer if that would finish her off or perk her back up. I weighed her and she was 4 pounds lighter than when I watered her on Saturday and still 2+ pounds lighter than when she is the driest. Some background on how I tried to kill my plants... 😭 I started this grow by watching a zillion videos with my key take away being 1-don't over water 2- don't transplant autos 3- don't feed full strength. I took it seriously, so my tiny little sprouts were put into 3 gallon pots of Fox Farm happy frog potting soil. (didn't realize this already had enough nutrients to last several weeks so I started nutrients in the 2nd week of Veg) I use Fox farm nutrients and follow their soil feeding schedule. I bought the Dirty Dozen starter kits and it did not have 2 products in that the feeding schedule but since they were not in the kit I assumed they must not be too important. They were.... Wholly Mackerel & Marine Cuisine fertilizer. I used a turkey baster to slowly drip a couple ounces of water around each plant I water just like in this picture. https://prnt.sc/wjq0gi for over a month. I didn't realize by watering like this for a month that I was making the nutrients build up just below the the root line each watering. I waited to water till the plants were very dry. Now looking back Way way to dry before watering. I am sure that is why they were not growing. I was only giving them enough to stay alive not thrive. So a little more back info Day 14 I watered the plants with plan water Day 23 after not having to water the plants for 9 days I watered them, 1/4 gallon each with week 2 schedule, with the addition of calmag+(2-0-0) @ 50% strength Day 27 they were light and needed to be watered and they had grown a little. so I gave them nutrients same as above Day 30 The plants were not quit as dry as usual but I was beginning to think I was underwatering them so I gave them 1/2 gallon of THIS IS WERE IT ALL GOES WRONG...(Actually after reviewing my grow journal just now my problems started Day 1 and was showing signs I just didn't know it and I still am not sure how to fix any of it Almost makes me think I should scrap it all and start over. These poor plants will be lucky to produce anything) Someone could seriously use my grow journal as a "everything not to do" guide. Day 35 since the plants were finally big enough to soak the pots fully. I also decided since they had used 1/2 gallon water in 3 days and they grew a ton I upped the nutrients to full strength and the calmag plus as well. This was the first time I had any runoff sadly I let the plants sit in the runoff and reabsorbed all the runoff. Day 38 Flushed each plant with with 5 gallons of tap water that had a PH of 6.4 & water temp was 62 degrees. My run off started at 4300ppm with a ph of 6.2. The PH was consistent in every plants runoff and all of them had off the chart PPMs. I brought NB down to 250ppm. Gorilla Glue and Pineapple express I brought the runoff down to 450. For some reason I decided that since my plants were probably in shock from no water and nutrients to more water and a whole lot of nutrients and I figured flushing them would reset the soil and I reasoned they would need food after not getting any from being in shock so I gave them each a half strength nutrients. I waited a full week then posted this question. Day 45 I have each plant plain water and checked the run off. The Gorilla Glue had a run off of 584ppm with a ph of 6.47 , The northern lights X had 750ppm and 6.38ph pineapple express had 1170ppm runoff so I ran a less less than an extra half gallon of water and that brought the ppm down to 706. PH was 6.3. I have a photo period that I didn't add to this dairy but has been with these plants and it is starting to show the same signs as the others they are just all in different phases of whatever I did to almost kill them. I started the next week on Friday so I will be adding pictures and a couple videos I took from today in my grow dairy tonight. I don't know what to do next.

Week 4 - Sometimes You Got To Lose To Gain Phase 2 - I took off the fan leaves so that the plant would redirect its energy into the stem and branches rather than the leaves. I also cut of the top heads so that the energy would go into the development of the 2 heads below.

Up the light to 80%

Half way through the week of germination the seedling started to grow horizontally, removed humidity tent, turned off the heating pad, and built up the soil around her base. Plant seems to be doing fine now. Join my discord here: https://discord.gg/bhBQRmSzJ3 Feeding 8/16/21 Had to PH via drop tester as digital meter broke. PPM742 69F

Was a little bit of a picky strain to grow but overall I am happy with the way everything turned out and the yields look phenomenal, would be nice to get 1 gram/watt, buds are dense, frosty and smell absolutely delicious! Will post pics of final product when she's done! 👊👌🔥

Day8 im give for girls 1ml/l voodoo juice m, never before im don’t used this brand :d Day10 girls growing well i think i stard feeding for them Day14 i was have a small problem with ph bit im allredy buy new ph meter... wtf old one show 6.5 but real ph was 5,4 :( but this problem is eliminated! See you guys at week3!!

Sooooo impressed with the size & quality of the buds😳 Super dense & sticky✂️ The smell is sweet fruity mix berries🤤🍓

Die Pflanze geht nach wie vor in einen echt enormen Stretch. Langsam wird der Platz echt eng. Eine sehr hoch wachsende Pflanze, welche ihre volle Energie in einen Haupttrieb steckt, welcher zusätzlich noch einige Seitentriebe ausbildet. Auch hier ist es eine spannend zu beobachtende Entwicklung. 💚

Week 3 Veg – Transplant Time, System Prep & Roots in Focus Strain: Gelonade Grower: Dogdoctor Type: Feminized Environment: Indoor Tent | LEDs | Dual Controlled Airflow ⸻ 🌱 Overview This week marked a key transition in the Gelonade grow: Transplant into final 11L fabric pots, Environmental tuning, TrolMaster ecosystem preparation, … and most of all: the official selection of the two chosen phenos that will move forward into flower. The girls are thriving. Roots are looking stunning. Leaves are proud and full. The journey deepens, and we’re ready. ⸻ 🌿 Selected Phenotypes After careful observation, Gelonade #1 and Gelonade #2 were chosen as the lead phenos for the full grow journey. Both exhibited: • Strong early structure • Balanced leaf symmetry • Vigor and resilience in early veg • Root density and color that promised excellent transplant response All three looked beautiful, but these two earned the spotlight. ✨ ⸻ Soil Mix & Nutrient Support We prepared a specialized super soil mix enriched with high-quality biological amendments from Aptus Holland to give the girls everything they need for explosive veg. Transplant Mix: • Super soil base • Aptus Mycor-Mix – to inoculate roots with beneficial mycorrhizae for symbiotic nutrient exchange • Aptus Micro-Mix – full-spectrum microbes and bacteria to build a thriving root biome • Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – stabilizes pH, locks in ideal nutrient availability 💧 Feed Mix (per liter of water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cellular armor, nutrient flow, anti-stress shield • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: For foundational frame building • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: Core NPK and micro blend • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml: Encourages new root branching and initial canopy formation 🌊 Water Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ Fabric Pots – Why We Use Them The girls were transplanted into 11-liter Amnesia fabric pots. Why fabric? • Air pruning: As roots reach the edges, they hit air, which stops circular binding and encourages lateral branching. • Oxygenation: Roots receive more oxygen through the breathable fabric, boosting metabolism. • Drainage: No soggy bottoms here. Fabric pots keep your medium airy and prevent overwatering issues. These are the final pots — no further transplants will be done. From here, the girls can stretch, root, and build freely. ⸻ Airflow & Filtration A strong root system needs strong air too. This week we’ve been dialing in our environment with dual extractor/intake systems: 🌀 Airflow Setup: • 2x 6-inch extractors: • TrolMaster Aerofan 6” – controlled by the TrolMaster system • Spider Farmer 6” – managed by the GGS controller • 1x 6-inch intake fan with carbon filter 🌫️ Why Carbon Filters (Even Early On)? • Odor control is obvious — but more than that, they filter airborne particles, spores, and contaminants, keeping air pure and clean, even during early veg. • Healthy air = happy leaves = fast growth. ⸻ 🔧 TrolMaster Ecosystem – Automation Incoming While everything is still being hand-watered, we’re preparing to connect the full grow to the TrolMaster system: • Environmental control (humidity, temp, VPD) • Light cycle syncing • Fan response automation • Future irrigation control for specific zones Not all plants will be automated, we’re keeping some fully manual to compare growth responses. That’s the Dogdoctor way: grow, observe, experiment, evolve. ⸻ 📸 Media & Studio Time The girls were looking so stunning, we took them into the studio for a proper photoshoot. These are living models — vibrant, proud, and photogenic. Likely we’ll do another shoot next week, before they get too large to safely move. Expect high-gloss glamour and leaf-candy content. ⸻ 🌿 What to Expect (and Not) After Transplant ✅ Expect: • Slight temporary slowdown (1–2 days max) • New root tips forming within 48–72 hours • Visible growth surge as roots expand into fresh soil • Fuller, wider leaf spacing ❌ Don’t Expect (yet): • Explosive top growth right away — they’ll focus on the roots first • Stretching — we’re still under strong LEDs with great internodal control Let the roots build the temple, and the temple will grow. ⸻ 📊 Environmental Conditions • Room Temp: 27°C • Humidity: 57.4% • CO₂: 632 ppm • Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600 LED • Delivering full-spectrum brilliance — tight internodes, deep greens, and radiant health. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Transplant week is always a sacred moment in a grow, a rite of passage from childhood to adolescence. The Gelonade girls are ready. Their roots are strong, their stems are proud, and their leaves are glowing with promise. This week was a blend of precision and love, preparing systems, mixing soil by hand, and honoring the natural rhythm of growth. From here on out, it’s about watching, adjusting, and letting nature lead. Let’s grow something unforgettable.
