Repotted into 18l pots , these are the final , you shouldn’t really repot autos ( start them in final pots ) , but I have 😜 Watering @ 7 litres per pot with above nutrients , I put a bucket underneath to catch the runoff , ph out was 6.3 What you can see , is that even the best performing soil , doesn’t compare to worst performing DWC

12/15 I don't know about this plant... I think the transplant was just too much stress and it's done. I knew it was a long shot with an auto flower. I'm going to give it 2, 3 more days. If I don't see a major improvement, I'm pulling it. It looks like the other one I started with this one is lagging too. I had an accident with another plant fallling over on it. Anyway, I went all the way on the drip irrigation system. Ended up installing a main line and then I ran a 1/4 line off the 1/2 main line that runs down the center of the tent. I just couldn't leave it alone and ended up building a pretty decent system. If I add 6 or 8 emitters then I'll upgrade the pump. 80gph won't be strong enough for 8 lines. So it's a bit more involved than living soil, and I enjoy that, as long as I have time. One plant doesn't take a lot. Just check pH 2x a day and adjust if needed. It will swing about 3 points every 12 hours. So I set it to 5.7 or 5.8 and when I get home at night it's at 6.0 or 6.1. It is way more forgiving than dwc and if the pH were to drift bad, then I have plenty of time. It's only got to be right 6 times during the day. 3 days.. I didn't want to kill her, but I'm not going to spend 3 months growing a joint either. 12/16 Looks like she's getting stronger. Took a video of the drip system in action. I tweaked it and added 2 inline drippers so they each have half the cup. They seem to drip pretty even in my other tests. I'm watching close . I hope she takes off so I don't have to start over. Color looks good. My pH was lower than I thought. By .4 points. So I fixed that and the plant seems to have taken notice. Hell the pH was probably just gotten to where it was in range. I got so used to the pen being accurate I totally forgot to double check it. It's right now. 12/18 Changed the res and upped the nutrients to 0.9 from 0.6. She is growing very slowly. I am about to pull it and make room for some clones in another tent. I found a breeder with some genetics I am really salivating for and I may just jerk it out. That being said; I think the increase in nutes has helped the color if nothing else. But with each day I'm more sure she is stunted. 12/20 She is picking up. Color is darkening up and size is getting within range. But she will be smaller in the cup. The latest pics are showing no issues yet. I think I can give her even more. Next res change I think we'll go to 1.0 or 1.1. just playing it by ear. Need to check the runoff and make sure it's not building up any salts. Haven't been top concerned yet because we get a little runoff and I believe I am getting the entire substrate moist. Watching... Waiting...

Mango Kush – Week 2 Flower (Week 6 from Seed) Bloom boosters, high temps, new lights, and a little tribute to nature Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush (Pheno #1 & Pheno #2) Environment: 8×8 Grow Room Control System: Full TrolMaster ecosystem (Tent-X brain + WCS substrate sensors and more) Lighting: • ThinkGrow Model One • ThinkGrow ICL-300 (x2 inner canopy lights) • Future of Grow Black Series 600W • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro ⸻ 🌸 Week 2 Flower – Transition Mode The Mango Kush sisters are looking absolutely stunning, even if this week was busier for me and I only managed a few photos. 🌱 Instead, I recorded a video walkthrough so everyone can see the whole room vibe, happy, lush, and full of energy. Both phenos are pushing beautifully into flower: • Pheno #1: Taller, branchy, already stretching into her flower frame. • Pheno #2: Started later, but catching up fast, morphing gracefully into bloom. The morphology shift is very visible this week, especially with the introduction of new bloom-focused nutrients. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Update – The New Recipe This week we swapped Start Booster → Top Booster and introduced a few Plagron classics to complement the Aptus base: Water Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 1 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml We paused All-in-One Liquid for now, letting the slow-release pellets in the super soil do their work. The idea: less redundancy, more synergy. 💡 Experiment in Progress: I’ve used Plagron successfully in the past, but this is my first time weaving their trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) into an Aptus base. It’s improvisation, yes, but that’s where discoveries are made. Let’s see how the Mango Kush girls respond! ⸻ 🌡️ Environment – Riding the Highs • Temps: Sometimes peaking at 34°C (🌬️ AC unit on the way soon!) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watering when down to 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → feeding me EC, moisture, and root zone data in real time ⚠️ It’s not a “perfect” VPD chart this week, but the Mango Kush girls are handling it like champs. Sometimes stress teaches resilience, and these ladies are showing strength. ⸻ 💡 Lighting the Room The canopy is now supported by a serious multi-light orchestra: • ThinkGrow Model One – Main engine, full spectrum power • ThinkGrow ICL-300 – Inner canopy lights bringing energy to lower branches, helping all bud sites shine • Future of Grow Black Series 600W – Supporting spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro – Newly added, boosting the footprint and canopy penetration Together, this creates an even distribution of photons across the room, minimizing shadow zones and preparing the girls for heavy bloom stacking. ⸻ 🧠 TrolMaster Ecosystem – Grow Room Brain The Tent-X controller, paired with WCS substrate sensors, has become my right hand: • Live feedback on soil moisture, EC, temp, and RH • Smarter watering decisions (no guessing, just data) • Automation ready → The dream of a fully self-regulating grow room is coming closer For now, I still hand-water, but soon automation will take over. Until then, it’s hands-on love every day. ⸻ 🐝 A Tribute to Bees – Nature’s Pollinators While we manage indoor canopies with LEDs and controllers, let’s not forget the simple magic of nature. Outdoors, it’s the bees that keep the cycle of life moving. One photo I’m sharing this week is of a bee pollinating a flower, a reminder that without them, much of our food (and medicine) would vanish. Bees are not just workers; they are guardians of biodiversity. 🌍💛 Let’s honor them in every grow, even indoors, where they cannot reach. ⸻ 🔄 Recap So Far – From Seed to Now • Week 0–2: Germination & seedling stage, Aptus Start Booster for early vigor • Week 3–4: Veg growth, branching in Pheno #1, Pheno #2 catching up • Week 5: Flip to flower, stretch begins, PPFD raised to 766 • Week 6 (Now): Morphology shift, bloom boosters added, lights upgraded, temps testing resilience The Mango Kush girls have evolved beautifully every step of the way , two different phenos, one journey, one story. ⸻ 🔮 What’s Next • AC installation → stabilize temps into the sweet 26–28°C range • Closer monitoring of Plagron + Aptus synergy → expect denser flowers • Watch for first true pistils and bud formation in Week 3 Flower • More light power on standby as the canopy fills out ⸻ 📹 This week’s highlight: A video tour of the full room (since fewer photos this time). 📸 A few shots are included to show just how happy the Mango Kush girls are. 🌱 Thank you everyone for reading, learning, and growing along with us!

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.- Why These Plagron Additives? – A Deep Dive I’ve decided to complement the Aptus base with three Plagron boosters. Each one has its own role in the flowering process, and together they form a very balanced support system for the Mango Kush ladies. 🌸 Power Buds (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Early flowering stimulator • What it does: Power Buds encourages the plant to initiate bud development faster. It shortens the “transition phase” from veg into bloom, helping flowers form sooner and more consistently across the canopy. • Why now: We’re in Week 2 Flower, the exact point where we want to signal the plants: “It’s time to build flowers.” Power Buds sends that hormonal nudge. ⸻ 🍯 Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) • Purpose: Enhances resin, aroma, and stress resistance • What it does: Sugar Royal contains amino acids that stimulate the plant to produce more chlorophyll and secondary metabolites. In plain terms: richer terpene profile, stickier resin, stronger smell, deeper taste. • Extra benefit: It also reduces stress from heat or drought, very useful right now since our temps have been spiking up to 34°C. • Why now: As stretch continues, plants need to stay strong and not waste energy on stress. Sugar Royal helps them thrive despite less-than-ideal VPD. ⸻ 💎 Green Sensation (1 ml/L) • Purpose: All-in-one bloom enhancer for the second half of flower • What it does: Green Sensation is a powerful 4-in-1 booster that improves: • Flowering: denser, heavier buds • Resin production: frostier flowers • Nutrient uptake: more efficient feeding • Soil health: stimulates beneficial microbial activity • Why now: Even though it shines brightest in late flower, starting early allows the soil ecosystem and plant metabolism to adapt gradually. By the time we hit peak bloom, the system is fully primed. ⸻ 🌱 How They Work Together • Power Buds → Kickstarts flower sites • Sugar Royal → Enhances resilience + resin quality • Green Sensation → Boosts density and overall flower performance The trio works like a team of specialists: one accelerates the start, one polishes the quality, and one pushes yield potential. Combined with the Aptus base (Regulator for strength, CalMag Boost for structure, Top Booster for bloom push), it’s a balanced, experimental, but very promising recipe. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 🌿💚 Willkommen zur sechsten vergangenen Blütewoche! Hier im Weedefix Grow, erreichen wir aktuell eine höhe von 142cm. Und eine Breite von 62cm. Beide Pflanzen sind gleich hoch. Es zeichnet sich ein durchgängis schönes und gesundes Wachstum ab. Die Pflanze reift nun ihre Blüten aus und es ist eine richtige Trichomexplosion zu erkennen. Das Icing zieht sich bei diesem Pheno stärker durch, dafür ist die Blütenstruktur etwas kleiner. Das Aroma der Pflanze ist etwas chemischer/ skunkiger als bei der anderen. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aktuell gut: ————— 🌞 Temp: 27 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 56% VPD: 1,00kPa 💡ppfd: 830 mpm ————— Viele Grüße 👋

Here we are week 6/7 in this post. Slowly fattening up. I don't think they will swell much more. Sugar leaves are showing signs of amber but actual bud there's still many clear Tris. Breeder says 8 weeks. My grows tend to go over breeder specs of strain lol. I'd like to push it as far as I can ALOT of the plants bid sites are very small was expecting them to get alot bigger.

I was really wishing for the pheno on the seedsman website but I guess I would have to just hunt through many more blueberry seeds to find that one. Overall I enjoyed the grow.

I’m thinking of throwing out one of the phenos she’s seems to have a mutation. Might wait a week and she what she does, but Pheno 1 is looking good and I can’t wait to take some clones of her.

Estamos en su 8° semana y me encontré las plantas con una deficiencia grave de agua y nutrientes 😓 La persona al cargo no enia tanto cuidado e hizo un mal riego sin empapar bien todo el sustrato, lo que llevo a un secado de hojas y raices 😔 Por suerte he ajustado todo y parece que va recuperando fuerza y color. Esperemos que no influya mucho en el resultado final de esta maravillosa cepa. En el riego hemos ajustado el agua 💧 con un pH6 y he añadido diferentes nutrientes para alimentar al fruto y que empiece a engordar. •HR de 40-60% •Temperatura: dia 28°C / noche 26°C •Temperatura agua: 30°C •EC: 0.8 / PPM: 400

Week 5 of flower 9/6/24 After neglecting to check runoff EC, the reading was 3 and PH 4.7, it's crazy that the plant did not show any signs of damage besides one branch. After flushing the growing medium with RO water + FloraKleen + H2O2 (PH 6.5), the runoff PH was still to high. The problem persisted after watering with 50% dilution nutrient solution and still getting low PH readings and high EC. The solution was to put something underneath the fabric pot, to create a gap for the runoff water to drain freely from the bottom part. Before, the fabric pot was sitting on the plate and the runoff was draining from 2 little holes in the middle to the drain compartment. Right after creating the gap and watering, all the readings were corrected. Fortunately, all salt build up got washed away, and the plant showed no more problems. :) On day 26 days of flower, the nutrient schedule was changed to fit the fifth week of flower. Note to self: check PH and EC every 3 waterings.

Desde el momento uno fue fácil de cultivar, no tuve ningún problema en todo su desarrolló. Como planta supero todas mis expectativas, se encuentran densos y muy pegajosos los cocos. En algunos hay partes de color violeta/lila. Y por ultimo recomiendo mucho cultivar esta genética por lo sencillo que fue cultivarla y sus resultados finales, todo de diez.

Day 15 - The start of week 3 and the girls are really taking off, from 1-2 Inches of vertical growth daily. Consuming a good amount of water, almost leaving the bucket empty. lol. Lightly defoliating to keep the bud sites exposed to light, as they get bushy very fast and recovery is only taking a day for them to bounce back. Pretty happy with how things are going right now. Slightly increased the EC by .2 but not enough to burn them.. which is the goal. Grateful for my trolmaster unit as it has made keeping tracking of my parameters much easier and effortless. Day 16- Topping up the res with RO water every two days. Otherwise I'm sure it would be empty! Pistils are showing and the bud sites are very visible. Seeing one pheno with slightly more sativa dominant traits. Luckily I took clones so I can run the best pheno next time around, although all these plants are special. Still going through the flower stretch. Excited for what is to come. Stay tuned for the results. Day 18 - As you can see, the difference is night and day over a period of 2 days they have had an explosion of growth. They were heavily defoliated on day 17 and bounced back within a day. Happy plants preying. Bud sites are forming everywhere now. Not much to report. Until the end of week 3 in a few days. Bring on week 4. Follow my Instagram and YouTube (link in bio)

W10F and the end is near. The bud sites are small and internodes are spaced far apart. I neglected them and let the light intensity get too high during stretch. They are pretty frosty though. Fade has started and they are displaying nice colours
