Start of week 5 8/20/25 Flushed with sledge hammer : 8/21/25

🌸 Week 4 Flower – Gelonade Run (Week 8 from Seed) The garden this week feels like a song in mid-chorus, not at the beginning, not at the climax, but at that perfect moment where everything flows together, alive and in rhythm. The Gelonade girls continue to thrive as they enter their fourth week of flower. Both phenos are strong, healthy, and stacking nicely, but once again, the spotlight belongs to Pheno #2, our unicorn with her unforgettable leaves. 🍃 The Freak Leaves – Nature’s Masterpiece Every week she amazes me. The leaves are massive, sculpted, and utterly unique, opening like fingers folding out of a hand, splitting and stretching in ways I’ve never seen before. They don’t just capture light; they capture attention. They’re freakish only in the sense of being extraordinary. This week I did a light defoliation, removing just a few fan leaves here and there to let air and light move through the canopy. Nothing heavy, just enough to open the girls up so they can breathe freely. The freak leaves still dominate the show, and I couldn’t be happier. 💧 Nutrition – Aptus x Plagron Fusion The nutrient strategy stays consistent, built on the solid foundation of super soil and pellets while enhancing with a balanced booster program: • Aptus Regulator – for structure and stress resistance • Aptus CalMag Boost – for strong frames and chlorophyll balance • Plagron Trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) – each at 1 ml/L This blend is improvisation, yes, but with intention. Aptus provides the backbone, while Plagron brings a bloom-focused push. EC remains low (around 0.6) and pH steady at 6.1. The girls are feeding happily without signs of deficiency or excess. Environment & Conditions Temperatures are still a little warm at times, but airflow and extraction keep things under control. Humidity floats between 50–60%, and the TrolMaster system continues to guide watering, keeping soil moisture around that 19–20% mark before irrigation. The ecosystem, from lights to sensors to airflow, is tuned and humming, letting the girls focus on flowering. 🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to Now • Week 1–2: Germination and fragile seedling stage, roots digging in. • Week 3–4 Veg: Vigorous branching, structure building, unicorn leaves making their first appearance. • Week 5–6: Transition to flower, pistils forming, stretch in full swing. • Week 7–8 (now): Bud sites stacking, white hairs everywhere, plants at ~88 cm, morphing beautifully into early bloom. It’s been a journey of balance — super soil below, light above, and the grower’s touch in between. 🔮 Looking Ahead Next week, I expect to see the beginnings of bud swelling as calyxes start to stack and flowers take shape. Pistils will multiply, resin glands will begin to sparkle, and the true magic of flower development will begin. What not to expect just yet: density. These next couple of weeks are about building the frame of the buds; the bulk will come later. ⸻ Plant Stats – Week 4 Flower / Week 8 from Seed • Height: ~80 cm • Temperature: 28–32°C • Humidity: 50–60% • VPD: ~1.8–2.0 kPa • EC: 0.6 • pH: 6.1 • Nutrients: Regulator, CalMag Boost, Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation ⸻ May the light kiss their leaves, may the roots hold steady, and may each new flower remind us that beauty is often found in the unexpected ⸻ ✨ The Gelonades are glowing. Strong, healthy, and uniquely beautiful — especially Pheno #2, who reminds us every day that difference is beauty. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Week 7 – Lemon OG in full swing 🍋🔥 We’ve entered week 7 and things are moving strong! Buds are stacking up nicely and getting chunkier by the day. Pistils are bright and reaching, trichomes are beginning to pop – this run smells like success already. There’s one girl in the back-middle acting a bit dramatic – some light potassium-related signs showing up. Could be linked to CalMag interactions, but nothing alarming. Keeping an eye on her, but overall everyone looks green and thriving. I’m seeing a healthy nitrogen fade on some leaves – exactly what I want at this stage. Lights are cranked to full power (480W total) and the girls are taking it like champs. Not a single sign of stress – just hungry green machines turning photons into fat nuggets. Climate’s locked in nicely too. Feeding highlights this week: • 💧 15 L water • 🌸 70 ml Biobizz Bloom • 🌼 20 ml Topmax • 30 ml CalMag • 2.5 g Epsom salt • 💩 15 ml GuanoKalong Liquid • ❌ No molasses this time Can’t wait to see how they frost up in the next days. The lemon is loud, the growth is proud, and the buds… oh man, they’re plumping hard. This is going to be a juicy harvest 🍋💪 Stay tuned, fam. – OnlyBuds 🌿 Keep it green. Keep it growing.

28.09.21 Всем привет, друзья. Банана прожила очередную неделю, и приближается к первому месячному юбилею. Тренировки проходят на ура, но ввиду коротких и жирных междоузлей , приходится тратить много времени на разведение листиков и веток. Chempie в этом плане проще, так как сативодоминантна. А так, все хорошо, как обычно буду дополнять в течение недели, ну и про видео LST я не забыл😊🙏всем спасибо, всех жду в гости🤜🤛 30.09.21. Очередная тренировка и полив, развитие бурное, растения выглядят здоровыми, в целом интересного не так уж и много, пока...)) скоро пойдёт жара, следите, друзья🙏 03.09.21.тренировка, выжидание, полив, все в штатном режиме. Надломил одну ветку у chempie при LST, закрепил при помощи скобки, см фото.

Week 5 for the Green Papaya from super sativa seeds club. Amazing plant, she has beautiful buds and a amazing sweet smell, ah and dont forget the high amount of trichomes she produces, and very very compact buds. this plant is great for a scrog, next time i will leave her with even more topping and lst and then fill a net, she has very potent, compact and nice buds perfect for this. Outdoor this plant shows pink pistils because of the slightly lower temperature at night. Adding also one picture for reference, that one if from a friend who has a clone of mine

DAY 16 At the begenning oh 3th week we can see one twins is littel bigger and we can see the leaf dimension in the picture. I think that i had some problem with fertilizazion becuse i see one leaf crumpling and in the border of two leaf some sign of overfert. i think overfert because i have used water with ph 6.2.......look at the picture......At day 16 i watered only with water ph 6.2 for security of my plant. what do you thing about these sign on leaf? certainly i will do flushing when i switch in bloom phase at the end of this week. DAY 18 VIDEO Look at the video for see how grow very fast and hard my Twins!! I'm very happy for this!!! Now they are 17 cm tall and tomorrow I switch them in the bloom stage. Happy growing for all 🙏 GGG

It’s day 30. One month old since her first sun light exposition. It’s been an amazing journey. A great start for 2025!

Watered and fed 6-9 6-11 foliar spray 6-15 watered and fed with enzymes. Sorry for blurry photos. Color and texture of leaves is improving as I allow her to dry more between watering. Topdressed with gnatnix

Growing strong hopefully she will be ready to harvest in a couple weeks

Die Blüten werden von Tag zu Tag größer und verströmen einen sehr intensiven Duft.

This week has been good, pistils started showing up on the 27th. Just watering with ph'd dechlorinated tap water. I bought lst wire but I'm not too sure if I did lst the best way but there are about 6 side branches with tops and 5 more on the way. Im probably going to be switching my 50% veg 20% bloom, to a 50/50 consuming 190 true watts from the wall next week.

Can’t wait for harvest but trichs telling it’s not ready yet. Smell is incredible- fresh and juicy. Top colas looking ready but down part still needs more time. Partial harvest? What would u do? Don’t want to overripe. What’s ur opinion?

Good morning, we just completed week 4 of veg and today is day 29 which is the start of 5. Temps are steady and these girls like it a little cooler and more humid, I tried to increase kpa to 1 slowly from .9 and they were not happy at all so I’m just keeping it at .9 for now! They also are thirsty girls wanting water every 2 days drying the pots up quickly! They got a dose of recharge which I like to do every 3 weeks! Also starts silica now that I started training the branches down for a better even canopy ! Moving forward I will alternate fish shit one watering and silica the next the rest of the way! I’ll be transplanting to their final 10 gallon pots today or tomorrow then will do some more training once they recover from that! I don’t usually notice transplant shock so I’m not anticipating any issues! Thanks for reading and see ya next week

Tag 82: Hab mich nun doch entschieden , da die Trichome wirklich zu 90% Milchig sind , die Dame am Stamm abzuhacken . (Extra ein kleines Beil gekauft (scherz)) . Dann im Stück einfach Kopfüber . Abluft ist an , Ventilator unter der Spitze . Jetzt noch 4-5 Tage warten (je nach Temp und Feuchte) . Und dann schauen wir mal was es wird .Für mich wichtig , viel Feuchtigkeit im Raum , ich will das sie auch nach dem Trocknen noch kleben . Ergo hab ich den Stoftopf drinne stehen gelassen . Tag 82-88: Kopfübertrocknung + Temperatur : 21°C - 23°C) + Lüftfeuchtigkeit : 52%rH-60%rH + VPD kleiner gleich 1.2 + 4 bis 5 Tage Ich versuche maximal einen VPD von 1.2 zu halten für ca 4-5 Tage. Tag 85: Ein Video hinzugefühgt wo ihr das Trockenzelt sehen könnt. Die LED hab ich genau unter der Abluft angebracht damit kein einseitiger Luftzug entsteht, dafür mit mehr Power . Tag 86: Video von der Kopfüberhängenden hinzugefühgt. Tag 88: 5 Tage lang getrocknet , Blüten vom Stiel getrennt und in Schalen in den Weinkühlschrank mit Silikatgel für die Feuchteregelung. Tag 90: Trichome aufgenommen. CureBoxen geschlossen nach 2 Tagen im Weinkühler Next Step: Bouveda 58% , Sauerstoffabsorbierer

June 30, 2024 This week is the end of mid flower. Next week we should be in the final stages of flower. Maturing as it's called. So we will focus on watering this week. Lighting doesn't need to be observed. So I'll be skipping that report unless something changes. Sour Diesel A is drinking next to nothing. Her reservoir is more than half full where the rest of the plants are nearly dry. She still looks good and has great color. But I think she needs to drink more. It's like the soil isn't absorbing much water at all. Maybe it's supposed to be this light. It's a new soil brand, so I'm not really sure what's going on. I think I'll top water her again tomorrow when the reservoir is less than half full. I was considering it today as it's a new week, but I'll be doing everything tomorrow when the rest of the plants are dried out. Sour Diesel B is looking really good. Her lowers look a little underdeveloped. No concern, it's to be expected. But I'd much rather see some development from the supplemental lighting. I'm not sure if it's working or not. I think I have them set up wrong. I need the bars. That's the only thing I can think of. I really don't want to install them so late into the grow, but maybe I will tomorrow. Or later today if I decide to clean out the reservoirs and start fresh. It's still really early. Sour Diesel C is swelling up more noticably now. I think it's due to the top feed. I'm wondering if this soil has issues with bottom feeding. Because I can tell you my previous soil would leave the whole top of the reservoir wet. And the soil would stay at a near constant 45% moisture level. Roots would come out from all over, but this is different. I might have to research the differences. Sour Diesel D has this massive baseball on top. Good side branch buds as well. She needs to be top fed as well. I think. She is a bit light, but doesn't seem to be having any issues. She's drinking just fine though. It's strange. Maybe she is more thirsty than the wicks can handle? The environment is a mess again today. It's really humid out and again it's showing in the tent. 67% humidity. Of course I'll be spending the day opening the tent to let in fresh air. Although, the airflow in the tent should be more than enough to keep air fresh and clean. Just humid. Once the AC kicks on it should drop to around 55%. Let's see how long that takes. It's not hot today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 64.4% VPD: 1.07 kPa July 1, 2024 Watering Day! All ladies got a full gallon refill today. Not much else going on. No pictures today. I did rotate a couple plants to get light to the outer branches. Sour Diesel A had about 2 liters left in the reservoir. So I put it in the sprayer and top watered it. There was absolutely no runoff, so I know she is a bit too dry. That should help. The branches are also starting to sway a bit when I move her around. Sour Diesel B has these super dense colas. Great size and smells wonderful. I can't wait to see how she tastes. Very promising quality. And a decent yield for the size. Sour Diesel C is looking really good. Now that all the buds are swelling, they are connecting and making the branches look fatter. She is also starting to sway a bit with movement. Sour Diesel D looks great with her giant cola. Nothing really else to say. I took a leaf off that was just blocking everything. The humidity today is still about 60%. I don't know how to make it go down. The AC hasn't kicked on, so I'm fighting it again. Shocker. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 61.8% VPD: 1.07 kPa July 2, 2024 It's picture day! That's about it though. No watering. Everything looks great! Sour Diesel A is starting to sway a bit. She is definitely packing on the weight in her buds. We are looking absolutely wonderful right now. Great leaf color. Beautiful buds. Nice bright orange pistils. Tons of trichomes. Nice and frosty. She is also holding on to that top feeding from yesterday. I may have to top feed her more often. I will most likely use some recharge when I have to top feed. Just to keep the microbes going. Sour Diesel B has these huge fat buds and some super strong branches as well. There's no real sway unless I jostle the plant, but she is also covered in frosty trichomes. Another week or 2 on her I think. Maybe a bit longer. Sour Diesel C is definitely starting to pack the weight on. Her tops are swaying without much touching. Solid buds and a lot of them. Definitely not a big as they should be. A friend of mine said it could be from a slight lack of water. It's definitely possible. My plants usually go through a gallon in less than 2 days by this time. Sour Diesel D looks great with her baseball sized cola. The side branches look pretty good as well. Lots of trichomes. Super dense. I've also had an idea. I haven't used base nutrients for this entire run as the soil is pre-amended and these are autos. However, I'm starting to think that was a bad idea. I don't think they got enough base nutrients to keep up with growth. It's probably why they didn't shoot up and most likely why 2 of them didn't grow super fat buds. Either way, I didn't have all three bottles anyway, so there wasn't much I could do. I should have used the micro and bloom and just worked with that. I don't have the grow bottle. Anyway, they didn't show any signs of deficiency, so I didn't bother adding them, but I'm starting to think they could have handled a hell of a lot more nutrients than I gave. There's still 2 to 3 weeks left. Maybe I'll add the flower and micro the next watering until flush. The environment is really weird. So it's a super nice day out. 72° and like 40% humidity. Just an overall nice day. On the other hand, my tent is stuck over 60% humidity yet again. So I have my heater turn on periodically to keep the temp up and try to pull some of the humidity out of the air. It's not really working. Even with the tent door open, the humidity is still high. I really don't get it. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.4° RH: 62.1% VPD: 1.01 kPa July 3, 2024 Not much going on today. Our ladies still have enough water to last another day or 2. I've also decided to add a new gallon of water to each reservoir after the first plant runs out of water. The rest will be top fed into the corresponding plant. Sour Diesel A is definitely the most frosty of the bunch. Her buds are swelling up nicely and are super dense. Another 2 to 3 weeks of this and we are gonna have some hefty buds. Sour Diesel B already has some hefty buds. Not as much frost, but definitely a lot. Her lowers are also getting fairly hefty. Big for lowers that I have seen. Sour Diesel C has super dense buds. Even though they are smaller, I expect them to continue swelling over the next 3 weeks. Sour Diesel D is happily doing her thing. The single massive cola seems to be getting fatter as expected. There's still a good 2 to 3 weeks left on her, so I expect some super weight on the cola. The environment is jacked up. I don't know how to fix this with what I have. Now it's 64% and I have no idea why. It'll drop shortly when the central air kicks on. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.3° RH: 58.8% VPD: 1.17 kPa July 4, 2024 Happy 4th everyone who celebrates it. It's picture day! Not a ton going on today, just some slight adjustments. Sour Diesel A looks good. She's getting heavy and swaying on the wind. Tons of frost, lots and lots of orange pistils. Sour Diesel B has massive frosty buds. They are super dense and look great! Honestly, there's a lot of leaves, but they are big. Even the sugar leaves are big. It should be pretty easy to trim. Sour Diesel C had light burn on one of the leaves that was way too close to the supplemental lighting. I snipped it off and rotated the plant slightly to get the leaves directly off the light. Secondly, she was super light, so she got a half gallon of just recharge top feed. I didn't use any of the nutrients, just the recharge. Hopefully that triggers some water intake. Sour Diesel D looks ridiculous with her one massive cola. Kinda looks like the main top of a huge plant that was cut off. Lol. She's drinking really well right now. The bottom of the container is evenly wet throughout. A great sign. She will be putting on more weight I think. Super frosty too. The central air kicked on really early today, so the environment should be good for the day. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.8° RH: 57.7% VPD: 1.26 kPa July 5, 2024 Not a lot going on today. I checked the plants and watered D. Sour Diesel A looks really nice. Super frosty and her pistils are bright orange and shriveling against the buds. It's really pretty. Sour Diesel B is packing on more weight. I see the natural foxtails. I wouldn't call them foxtails. I'd call them buds that got too big for the cola. Hell yes. Sour Diesel C is looking super good. Her buds are still swelling and frost is still coming in. Sour Diesel D was bone dry today. Not the soil, but the reservoir. The soil was a little dry, but it will soak up the water and fix itself. If not, I'll be doing a half gallon top water tomorrow. I did the full nutrient regimen, but I used the rest of the half gallon for A yesterday. I topped it off and left the Recharge in. The environment is messed up like it is every morning. But it's noon now and the humidity is still at 64%. When the central air kicks on, it will drop down to 50% by mid afternoon. The temp is still really good at 75°. Very happy with that. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 57.6% VPD: 1.24 kPa July 6, 2024 It's picture day! It's also the last day of week 6 of flower. Day 77 from seed. I also did my weekly video. Sour Diesel A is looking quite good. Her branches are pretty stiff and that frost is insane. It looks like white frosting all over. Some is so thick you can't see the green beneath. Sour Diesel B looks great! Her leaves just started to canoe a bit. I'm not sure if she is reaching or coming to the end of her life, or has some sort of toxicity or deficiency. I don't think so though. Nothing has changed in weeks. However, tomorrow I'll be watering with Overdrive for the rest of the grow cycle. She's also foxtailing. Not entirely sure that's supposed to happen, but it is. Although, I read somewhere that the Sour Diesel strain tends to produce foxtails naturally. Sour Diesel C is a bit droopy. I'm not sure why. She doesn't seem to need water, but I may top feed her tomorrow as well as refill the reservoir. Maybe I'll water to runoff. I'd say a gallon of water should do it. Or 3/4 gallon. Either way, I think she needs it. Actually, I'm thinking the rest of the plants need it too. Maybe I'll just water all of them to runoff. Sour Diesel D is just doing her thing. Not much to report. A couple little foxtails here and there, but the buds are still super dense. Let's hope it's a natural occurrence and not some environmental issue, like the @#$&ing humidity being too high. I should definitely try to research this. The environment is back to what it has been. High humidity in the morning and then it drops down to 54% by mid afternoon and by evening it's down to 49%. The temp is perfectly under control. At a steady 75° to 76° all day. Night time is a bit weird lately though. 72° at night. Mostly because the central air kicks off and my room warms up. I have my room AC but we all know by now that the thing blows out humidity like a rainforest. It just doesn't make sense. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.3° RH: 57.3% VPD: 1.25 kPa

Mandarin Squeeze has had a very week start. She sprouted, then acted like she was gonna dampen off. So I stuck the second seed in the rockwool. It looked undeveloped a bit. So it might not sprout or I will have dueling plants if it does. She is very week, but looking way better then a few days ago. 🤞🏻one of them gets established. Thank you Terpyz Mutant Genetics, and Spider Farmer. This is also my first grow using Hydroguard. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
