🌿 Week 11: The Runtz Harvest & The Final Stretch! ✂️🍂 The Vibe: Week 11 is here, and the tent is feeling a little more spacious! The big news this week is that the White Runtz Automatic has officially been chopped, and she did absolutely incredible. The remaining ladies are pushing through their final stages, and the autumn fade is in full swing. ✂️ The Harvest Report: White Runtz Automatic 🍩❄️ Total Time: 79 Days Rating: 10/10 The Verdict: This girl was an absolute dream to grow! From the start, she showed incredible vigor and stayed very resilient against any stress. Around week 7-8, she started to bulk up like magic. For a 100W setup, her bud density is seriously impressive, and the frost on her makes it look like she’s been dipped in sugar. She didn’t mind the BioBizz and Plagron mix at all and thrived on the PK 13-14 boost in late flower. A very straightforward, no-fuss plant that delivers top-shelf results. I can’t wait to test her out once cure are complete! The Remaining Ladies: Pineapple Express F1: Still the undisputed Queen of the tent! 👑 Her main colas are rock hard and coated in a sticky layer of resin. She’s showing off some beautiful purple and yellow hues in her fan leaves as she nears the finish line. Blue Cheese F1: My pungent little rebel. 🧀 She stayed compact and "boujee" until the end, but the smell coming off her is still the loudest in the tent. She is putting all her remaining energy into ripening those dense little nuggets. Care & Environment: With the Runtz out of the tent, airflow is fantastic. I'm keeping the humidity strictly around 45-50% to prevent any bud rot on these dense colas, and temperatures are holding steady at 27°C with the lights on. Watering is being closely monitored as they start using up the last of their stored nutrients. Next Steps: It’s all about the jeweler's loupe for the Pineapple Express and Blue Cheese now. I’m checking trichomes daily, waiting for that perfect amber ratio before the final chop. The finish line is right around the corner! Happy growing, everyone! Let me know what you think of the Runtz harvest below! 👇

The Hobbit Hole Outdoor Grow 2026 – Woche 9 Eine weitere Woche liegt hinter dem Hobbit Hole und trotz zwei Tagen mit anhaltendem Regen entwickelt sich der Outdoor-Grow weiterhin hervorragend. Natürlich war ich etwas nervös, denn ohne festes Dach über den Pflanzen steigt in dieser Blütephase das Risiko für Schimmel deutlich an. Umso erleichterter war ich, als alle drei Ladies nach dem Wetter vollständig abgetrocknet waren. Bei der Kontrolle konnte ich keinerlei Anzeichen von Bud Rot oder anderer Fäulnis entdecken – genau so hatte ich es mir erhofft. Gelato bleibt weiterhin die Spitzenreiterin. Sie ist nach wie vor die am weitesten entwickelte Pflanze und ihre Hauptcola legt inzwischen sichtbar an Volumen zu. Auch die Seitenblüten werden Woche für Woche kräftiger. Im unteren Bereich beginnen inzwischen einige der ältesten Fächerblätter gelb zu werden. Da ausschließlich die älteren Blätter betroffen sind und die Blüten selbst kerngesund aussehen, werte ich das als normalen Nährstoffumschichtungsprozess während der Blüte. Die ersten vereinzelten bernsteinfarbenen Trichome lassen sich bereits entdecken, insgesamt dominiert aber noch ein milchiges Bild. Bis zur Ernte wird sie also noch etwas Zeit brauchen. Cinderella entwickelt sich immer mehr zur Harzkönigin des Hobbit Holes. Schon jetzt sind die Zuckerblätter extrem dicht mit Trichomen überzogen und jedes Makrofoto macht einfach Spaß. Sie wirkt insgesamt etwas schlanker als die Gelato, gleicht das aber mit einer beeindruckenden Harzproduktion aus. Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie stark die Blüten in den nächsten Wochen noch anschwellen werden. Purple Punch holt ebenfalls weiter auf. Die Colas wirken inzwischen deutlich kompakter als noch vor wenigen Wochen und die ersten dunkleren Farbtöne zeigen sich bereits an einzelnen Zuckerblättern. Sie entwickelt ihren ganz eigenen Charakter und könnte am Ende geschmacklich noch eine echte Überraschung werden. Auch bei der Düngung gab es eine kleine Anpassung. Da sich im Bereich des Hobbit Holes Brombeeren und wilder Wein ebenfalls über die Nährstoffe freuen, werde ich künftig bei jedem zweiten Gießen nach Hesi-Schema düngen, um den zusätzlichen Verbrauch im Boden auszugleichen. Insgesamt bin ich mit Woche 9 mehr als zufrieden. Nach den Regentagen sehen alle drei Pflanzen gesund aus, die Blüten legen sichtbar an Masse zu und die Harzproduktion nimmt Woche für Woche weiter zu. Jetzt beginnt die Phase, in der sich Geduld auszahlen wird – die nächsten Wochen werden entscheiden, welches Potenzial wirklich in den drei Ladies steckt.

Once again these girls don’t really need much just watering when dry but other than that we are on cruise mode. I have been checking trichomes for about a week now and man is she almost there I should be giving them lights out with in another week or two can’t wait

Giorno 57 - procede bene, ho tolto qualche foglia morta sotto, l’odore é davvero troppo forte anche fuori dalla grow box, comprerò Ona Gel Giorno 58 - ho continuato a defogliare sempre su “CARAMEL” le foglie morte, domani irrigherò Giorno 59 - fornisco 0,5 L di acqua a testa, procede bene, i fiori di “CARAMEL” sono rimasti nettamente più piccoli a causa delle carenze Giorno 60 - prima rilevazione dei Tricomi al microscopio, ancora trasparenti, credo che ci vorranno ancora 10 giorni prima del taglio… Giorno 61 - procede bene, domani darò ancora acqua Giorno 62 - alla fine non ho dato ancora acqua, la daró domani, hanno iniziato a ingiallirsi le foglie di “CREAM” e manifestare carenze, spero di raccogliere tra una settimana Giorno 63 - fornisco 1 litro di acqua a testa. Le foglie di “CREAM” hanno macchie marrone rotonde, carenza di calcio, mi hanno consigliato di dare CalMag ma ormai sono a fine ciclo e attendo di raccogliere

Skywalker OG — Harvest / Trim / Cure Part 1 — The Giants Begin First of all, we want to apologize once again for dividing this harvest series into multiple parts. But honestly… there was simply no other way to do this properly. This Skywalker OG run became massive. Not just in terms of plant size and harvest weight, but also in documentation, photos, observations, and the amount of details we wanted to properly share with everybody following this journey. So instead of rushing everything into one overloaded update, we decided to divide the: * harvest * trimming * drying * curing * and smoke review into three, maybe even four different reports. Mainly because we are dealing with: three huge plants all with slightly different expressions, structures, and personalities. And honestly? These girls deserve proper attention. ⸻ Quick Recap — 12/12 From Seed This entire run was done: 12/12 from seed with almost no training at all. No topping. No aggressive manipulation. No heavy canopy control. Mostly: * gentle leaf bending * small adjustments * minor defoliation * and simply opening light paths where needed The rest? We allowed the plants themselves to decide. To grow naturally. To express themselves freely. To shape their own structure. And what they became honestly surprised us. ⸻ Legends Of The 12/12 Galaxy These plants did not become extremely tall. Instead… they became monsters horizontally and structurally. Massive production. Heavy flowers everywhere. Dense stacking all across the branches. Everywhere you looked: * colas * side branches * swollen flowers * branches collapsing under their own weight Support or no support… it honestly barely mattered. These girls were simply too heavy. The branches kept bunching, leaning, and dropping from pure flower mass alone. Exactly the kind of “problem” growers love having. ⸻ The Fade One thing we absolutely loved during the final weeks was watching the senescence develop naturally. Toward the end, these plants received mostly: * water * enzymes * patience And they faded beautifully. The yellows. The pale greens. The autumn-like transitions. The dying fan leaves surrounding swollen flowers. It gave the room this incredible “end of season” energy. The plants truly looked finished. Not forced. Not rushed. Just naturally reaching the end of their cycle. And visually? Beautiful. ⸻ The Flowers Honestly… these flowers are ridiculous. Huge colas all over the plant. Top colas. Side colas. Lower colas. Everywhere. And dense. Very dense. The kind of flowers where even holding them lightly leaves resin on your fingers instantly. You can see it in the photos too: our hands next to the flowers almost look small beside some of these colas. And we don’t exactly have tiny hands. The stacking came out incredibly effective too. No wasted structure. No airy towers. Just thick, compact, greasy flowers from top to bottom. Exactly the type of structure we hoped Skywalker OG would give us. ⸻ Harvest Day So finally… week 14 from seed arrived. And it was time. We harvested the first giant. And honestly, carrying this girl into the studio already felt surreal. Huge branches. Massive colas. Beautiful fading colors. Trichomes absolutely covering the flowers. Most of the trichomes sat exactly where we personally like them: * mostly cloudy * a touch of amber * and still a few clears remaining Because honestly? It is impossible to have every single trichome perfectly identical at once. And this specific harvest window gives us the balance we personally enjoy most: * potency * terpene expression * complexity * and overall effect balance Not too early. Not too late. Right in that beautiful middle ground. ⸻ Charas & Resin One thing that immediately stood out during harvest was how absurdly sticky these plants were. Simply removing fan leaves and touching flowers started building resin layers onto the gloves almost instantly. And naturally… we started collecting charas. For people unfamiliar: charas is a traditional hand-rubbed cannabis resin made directly from fresh living or freshly harvested plants. Unlike dry sift or ice water hash, charas comes purely from physically collecting the resin through contact and friction. And honestly? We absolutely love this type of medicine. There’s something incredibly old-school and ritualistic about it. Sticky. Greasy. Dark. Aromatic. Almost alive in texture. Very different from the finger hash we’ll later collect during dry trimming sessions. Fresh charas feels softer, oilier, richer, and incredibly expressive terpene-wise. This Skywalker OG produced beautiful charas too. Easy to collect. Very greasy. Very resin-heavy. Exactly the kind of resin that instantly tells you: “This plant is loaded.” ⸻ Full Plant Drying After harvest, we decided once again to dry the plants whole. Entire plant hanging. All of them. We personally love this method because it slows the drying process slightly and helps preserve: * terpenes * moisture balance * aroma complexity * and overall flower quality This first plant will now dry roughly: 7–10 days under: * 18–20°C * ~60% RH Although during the first couple of days we intentionally lower humidity closer to: ~45% RH mainly because these plants are extremely large and dense. And with flowers this thick, we prefer removing the initial excess surface moisture a bit faster to reduce risks of unwanted issues like: * trapped moisture * stagnant humidity pockets * or bud rot After that initial phase, conditions stabilize again for slower drying and proper curing preparation. ⸻ What Comes Next The next reports will continue covering: * the remaining Skywalker OG plants * their individual structures * harvest observations * drying progress * trimming sessions * cure * and eventually full smoke reviews All while still staying within this same harvest week timeline. Because honestly? Each plant deserves its own spotlight. And each one brought something special to the room. ⸻ Thank You Huge thanks once again to everybody following this journey. To the growers. To the silent viewers. To the curious minds. To the old followers. To the new followers. To the skeptics. To the lovers. To the people stopping by for just a few seconds. To the breeders at Zamnesia behind these genetics. To Plagron for the nutrients. To Future Of Grow and Lumiflora for the LEDs helping drive this jungle. To everybody creating the gear, tools, and spaces that allow growers like us to keep learning and sharing openly. And especially to the growing community itself. Because without growers sharing knowledge with growers… none of this culture survives. From grower to growers. Skywalker OG harvest series officially begins. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Hello hello again! Starting Week 9 with again some flashlight nighttime shots because i fell in love with that. Growwise, theres nothing much to report. I keep everything more or less the same. Watering 2,5L after 5 Days, usually i had a pretty good 4 day rhythm going but last time they had a tad too much runoff so i decided to let her dry out for a day more. they liked that, back to the usual thirstiness. Nutes changed a bit (grow up from 2 to 2.5, bloom up from 3 to 3.2) but thats just because i did an oopsie. PH stays 6.5 in, 6.2 out. Trichomes i will check later. Pistils are still to white and they dont look ready yet, but its fun taking closeup pictures, so there you go. Other than that, ill skip my usual ramblings about how i love these, you all know that by now :) *Added Trichomes, daytime shots and timelapse at the end of week 9, until next week, happy growing! :

10.04.25 day 38. Plants are progressing nicely. Decided to defoliate today. As stated previously I mixed up plants so don't know which is name is for what plant. I think plant in back is chemdawg as it has a grow time of 9-10 weeks while other have 8-9 weeks. Both plants in front are more sativa so maybe tropican cookies. The struggling plant had purule stripe in flower so maybe banana purple punch or lemon cherry cookies. Will continue observations and try to figure out name.

I was unable to use the full power of the Optic 2 LED due to height and heat issues. This was impacting the amount of light each plant was receiving thus stunting their growth (you’ll see the before and after pictures above). I have now brought/installed the HLG 260w Rspec and have noticed a improvement. The new light covers the canopy well and I am now able to give the plants more light which will hopefully help them develop better buds. The Dos-Si-Dos have responded well and is really starting to pack on some weight and she is starting to form some nice buds I will continue to use my PK to help her along, next time I will start the PK at the first sign of flower as I feel from week 4 is a little late. Happy growing 🤙🏿

Day 47 ( day 10 flowering) Holy moly these ladies are a fast strain. They are well ahead in terms of flowering development with all three of them showing their black and white buds off so well. They are very aesthetically worthy of growing out so fat and I cannot wait to see the finished girls. #1 is by far the biggest overall as it the case with all the LOS pots. The soil is 100% and I dont see me changing this medium for the forseeable future. Her growth has been steady to this point and is clearly focused on her buds now. she is nicely spread out in her pot with lots of space below for air movement. #2 is still looking slightly pale and my decision to not top or train her could have paid off as she is keeping good pace with her LOS sister for canopy height at least. the paling is getting less now and she has some great looking branching and budding happening. #3 Is the little girl of this family and is building buds all over her frame now. she has been trained a little but it has kept her very low and stout. Overall they are blowing me away bit the ecothrive is a clear leader for me here.

F*CK MENSTRUAL CRAMPS! Purplematic is a high CBD, low THC strain by RQS. It helps with pain management without getting you high as a kite, ie it's great to battle those monthly belly cramps. It has become my wife's favourite F*CK MENSTRUAL CRAMPS strain. We use it to make edibles and tinctures. So, a little goes a long way. Rather than pushing for yield, we focus on getting one big fat juicy sticky cola. ITS FAST - 8-9 weeks from seed to harvest ITS BEAUTIFUL - the buds get a nice purple color with light brown pistils IT WORKS - follow our journey to make the best anti cramps medicine!

👽👍 Tent getting nice and full now from these 5! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I did some hst and lst this week on some tall stems to try and keep an even canopy, looks like they responding well. The thin sativa looking one was only done recently so will take another pick when she's in full salute again! Haven't done much defoilation yet just tucking the leaves away, I'm going to lollypop abit more soon I think to get them top buds firing! So much growth Plagron kicking in!!!! Had some pale leaves last week so added more Nitrogen. I think I can see a slight difference in colour this week . One plant has some yellow tips so I been applying some calmag spray to the leaves as I heard it helps. Added 2ml pl of calmag to this feed also. 👌👽👍

This week they hung out of the tent to catch some natural sunlight ☀️ Fast and steady growth keeps increasing, with Bruce being the clear standout. Extra bushy and huge, huge leaves! Very impressed by her structure at such a young age. Curious to see her evolution. Sherbet is also on a very good track, can barely tell she had an issue to begin with. Biscotti also going strong. Let’s keep it going 🚀

Thanks again to RQS for providing the genetics for another diary! It's been another fun run. Thanks to all that follow, like and comment. I appreciate every one of you 👊✌️🤙 Once she was down, her fan leaves were cut off and each branch was hung in the drying box and left to dry for 8 days. It was left in a cool dark place to slow drying time. Once the outer leaves were dry her buds were given a close trim and jarred for curing. I put a 62% boveda pack inside to ensure the humidity is stable during curing, although it's not crucial. The jar is burped once a day for a few days and then left approx a week inbetween the next couple of openings. After 3 weeks or so, you don't have to worry about burping if you wish to store for a while, or you can tuck right in like I do! Because I have 4 seperate quarters for other plants/strains in one tent, under one light, I've had to calculate these by dividing the conditions by 4 (4 sections in total sharing same conditions). This is the fairest and only way to work it out on average as a full tent. If you multiply by 4, it gives you the average amount for a full tent worth. Happy growing! 🦊

Transplanted the Blueberry into her final pot, didn't show any signs of transplant shock even right after transplanting. Still only feeding 200 ppm worth of CalMag RO water once a day. Both seem to be doing great so far.
