Spider Mite infestation. I put the story in the pictures. Long story short, the infestation focused on the lower (ticker) branches of AK2 and this explains the undergrowth compared to her sisters. The trichomes are half-cloudy / milky and she will be ready for harvest within a maximum of 2 weeks. I defoliated her by removing nearly all leaves and put her aside in the grow room. Open to any other suggestions. I also confess that I neglected the plants and did not check the source of the white point. I also used some of the soils I used in other outdoor plants which I believe the source of the infestation. Seed Formations AK2, again produces seeds in lower branches. I did not pollinate this one and there is no other source that she is pollinated. I didn't see any Bananas, too. I am thinking it might be because of the stress from the Spider Mites. Open to any suggestions on that too. Other Two Girls I spotted some mites on them too, but it was not alarming. I defoliated the infested few leaves and they will be okay. Jack Herer needs two and White47 might need another 3 weeks and that is it. I think they all will be okay until then. I will keep a close eye on them. Sorry for not good news this week.

On day 1 the reservoirs PH is 6.3. The rez is 483 ppm. The girls are looking good and nitrogen toxicity seems to have stopped. On day 2 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.1 to 6.3. The rez is 477 ppm. Trichomes seem to be 10% cloudy so I still have a bit to go i'm thinking 9 weeks should be a good bet! On day 3 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.4 to 6.1. The rez is 500 ppm. On day 4 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. The rez is 503 ppm. I lowered the ppfd so my tallest received 900 ppfd and an average of 543 ppfd. On day 5 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. The rez is 519 ppm. I removed some of the extra fan leaves blocking bud sites. On day 6 I changed out the reservoir with only tap water and adjusted the PH from 6.7 to 6.1 with a ppm of 249. The trichomes are maturing and I plan on harvesting on week 8 day 4 of flower. On day 7 the reservoirs PH was adjusted from 6.5 to 6.0. The rez ppm is 250.

La verdad que no puedo decir Nada en negativo sobre esta chepa para mi Royal Queen Seeds es unos de Los mejores Banco de semilla por un error mio la sourdiesel se quedó pequena, però ha hecho su trabajo muy bien y a sido fuerte a resisti mi error. 💯💯💯💯💯💯Royal Queen Seeds

Got the girls in some bigger pots, avoided waiting a few extra days of transplant shock with some mycorrhiza. They seems to be way happier now! They got a little stressed out from that one week it was getting into the 90s but I think they will bounce back just fine. Until next time growmeis. Peace. 06/12/23

.

She had a simple life little lst but thats about it she looked small as a plant but ended up being my highest yeild plant over 100 grams dry flower had couple problems with me feeding to much but sorted out just fine overall its a nice plant to grow very quickly and easy just don't get carried away with food my experience less additives the better grow simple with autos from fastbuds especially 2 or 3 additives is plenty or your gonna run the risk of buring them 😤 grow for this plant was 10/10 hardly any effort needed 70 quick days

Again a very uneventful week. All muted were removed from the mix and only cannazym and boost were given until Wednesday and then only RO water.

Week 6 Flower — Sundae Driver (deep dive) Quick recap — From seed to Week 6 • Germination: Pillbox + water enriched with Aptus Regulator / Start Booster; three seeds, two kept. • Early transplant: Seedlings moved directly into final 11 L fabric pots with a living / amended super-soil (Janeco Light Mix + Aptus line + mycorrhizae, substrate buffer, micro-mix). • Short veg: Minimal veg time (early transplant strategy), light training (leaf-tucking) and one deliberate supercrop to control a “moon-shot” top. • Flower flip: You used an 11/13 light schedule to encourage a firm, fast transition into flower. • Now: Week 6 of flower — plants are large, heavy, and beginning to show clear resin development. ⸻ This week’s snapshot (what you told me) • Solution EC: 0.7 mS/cm (you stopped All-in-One liquid and pulled solution EC down) • Solution pH: ~6.1 • Soil/substrate EC: still comparatively high (you reported earlier numbers around 5–6 mS/cm) — the living soil is doing the heavy lifting. • Feed plan kept: Plagron PowerBuds, Green Sensation, Sugar Royal (all low-dose), plus Aptus Regulator and Aptus CalMag Boost. • Plants: heavy, bulking, obvious frost/trichome production; supercrop site is producing well. ⸻ Why you lowered solution EC and stopped the All-in-One liquid • Letting the soil lead. Your living, richly amended soil already holds lots of available ions. Pulling water-solution EC back to ~0.7 makes the fertigation a light steering input rather than the dominant nutrient source. That reduces the risk of salt buildup while letting the soil biology and reserves feed the plants. • Encouraging ripening, not more vegetative growth. Lowering soluble N input and total EC reduces vegetative vigor and encourages the plant to reallocate energy into flower development and resin production. • Cleaner profile. A lighter solution often helps express terpenes and can reduce harsh residual taste if you choose to flush later. • Risk management. With a high substrate EC you avoid compounding salts, but you must monitor runoff EC/pH to ensure you’re not drifting into deficiency or toxicity. ⸻ Trichomes & white pistils, what you’re seeing and what it means • White pistils (hairs): still plentiful, the plant is mid-flower, still producing new pistils while older ones will start darkening in the coming weeks. A lot of white pistils now is normal at Week 6; they will darken and curl as maturity approaches. • Trichome types & stages: you’re seeing more glandular heads and sticky sugar leaves. Trichomes progress roughly: clear → cloudy/milky → amber. • Clear: immature (not peak potency) • Cloudy/milky: peak cannabinoid expression, usually target harvest for a balanced high • Amber: more degraded THC → more sedative, couch-type effect; some amber is normal depending on desired effect • What heavy trichome coverage now means: the plants have moved into active resin production; enzymes and carbon flux are being directed to terpene and cannabinoid pathways. Continued support (sugars, PK, stable environment) helps maximize resin and terpene development. ⸻ Supercrop update — technical recap & why it worked • Mechanics: you bruised/softened the stem, bent it, and closed the wound so the plant formed a strengthened knuckle. That redirection reduces apical dominance and sends auxin to lateral sites. • Results you observed: rapid curve-up, additional bud sites along the bent branch, and notable fruiting at the knuckle/top area. That’s expected, the wound redirects hormonal flow and the plant compensates by boosting side growth and flowers. • Monitoring: the knuckle strengthens over 3–7 days; watch for any slow-healing splits and keep airflow over the site to prevent moisture pooling. ⸻ Why you kept Plagron + Aptus (what each brings) • Plagron PowerBuds / Green Sensation / Sugar Royal: targeted bloom stimulators (PK, co-factors, carbs/aminos). They help compact flowers, feed terpene pathways, and provide sugars/precursors that support aroma and density. • Plagron Sugar Royal: acts as a carbohydrate/secondary biostimulant — supports microbes and gives a sugar boost that plants and microbes use for energy in resin synthesis. • Aptus Regulator: supports stress resilience, uptake efficiency, cell wall strength — especially valuable under high light/heat. • Aptus CalMag Boost: maintains Ca/Mg balance, essential for cell structure and avoiding tip burn when uptake is rapid. • Strategy: Plagron drives bloom chemistry; Aptus protects physiology and supports clean uptake. With soil heavy on reserves, both are applied as focused steering tools. ⸻ Week 6: What is happening physiologically • The plant transitions from stretch to stacking: calyxes thicken, pistils begin to darken in the coming weeks, and trichome density increases. • Carbohydrate flux is prioritized to the floral sink; you’ll see faster water uptake and increased K demand. • Leaf yellowing in lower leaves often begins around now as N is remobilized to flowers, this is frequently normal in mid-late flower if controlled and not extreme. ⸻ What to expect next (practical timeline & signals) Expect (over the next 1–3 weeks): • Continued calyx swelling and denser flowers. • Trichomes moving from mostly clear → cloudy (you’ll start seeing the ‘frost’ become more opaque). • Stronger terpene aroma as sugars and PK feed resin pathways. • Heavier water uptake and faster EC changes between runs. Don’t expect (yet): • Final resin peak — that typically comes later (weeks 7–10 depending on genetics). • Immediate massive ambering — amber trichomes usually develop later in the finish window. • No surprises — biological systems still can flip; remain monitoring-forward. Watch closely for: • Runoff EC & pH after a couple of waterings — if runoff EC climbs very high, consider a mild runoff correction. • Humidity & bud density: keep RH controlled to avoid botrytis (mid 40–55% during heavy stacking; lower as flowers bulk). • Magnesium / Potassium signs: interveinal yellowing (Mg) or edge cupping/crisping (K) — maintain CalMag and consider K if uptake accelerates. ⸻ Actionable checklist for Week 6 • Continue solution EC ~0.7 and pH ~6.1; treat fertigation as steering. • Measure runoff EC/pH at least once this week — log the results. • Keep Plagron bloom stack + Aptus Regulator & CalMag at light doses. • Keep canopy airflow high; consider lowering RH progressively if buds bulk fast. • Prepare stakes / soft ties or light trellis for heavy colas (supercrop sites may need support). • Microscope checks: start daily/alternate-day inspection of trichomes with 30–60× loupe — photograph if you want a timeline. • Avoid heavy new training; minor tucks/leaf removal to open air/light only. ⸻ A short note on flushing (planning) • Many growers flush with pH-balanced plain water 1–2 weeks before harvest to reduce soluble salts and tighten flavor; opinions vary. If you intend to flush, start planning timing based on trichome stage, not calendar alone. Your living soil and current low-solution EC approach already help keep things cleaner. ⸻ Final reflection — gratitude & community Week 6 is where the plant’s intent becomes visible: form into flower, pack on weight, and build resin. Your measured decision to pull back water EC while continuing Plagron’s bloom stimulants and Aptus support is a smart “steer, don’t force” approach that lets the living soil and the plant do the heavy metabolic work. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

I didn't make life easy for my autos... topped 2x, repotted 1x, several defoliations, bad water stress for 2 weeks, moved to another tent... I couldn't hope for a miraculous harvest but I'm not complaining at all: in only 10 weeks from seed to harvest, not far from 58g dry, with dense and frosty nuggets, and a nice smell that fills my room as soon as I open the jars 🤩 I won't wait long for the smoke test 👌

*Increased ppm from 950 to 1050. *The white widows is forming some frost but the most noticeable trait it’s flowering along the stem pretty well.

Hey everyone 😀. On flowering day 59 both came into the darkroom and on flowering day 61 both were harvested :-). Both were very easy to trim 👍. Both of them already smell very tasty but more on the last update because this is only the short intermediate update :-). The trimmed buds were laid out on nets so that they can now dry at 62% humidity for 8-14 days before fermenting with 62% boveda packs in the jars :-). I wish you a lot with the interim update of the harvest and we'll see you at the end 👍😃.

Good day Mates.After bit starting problems, the two remaining plants catched up perfectly. Buds started to grow really big'n'fat.. Strong Red fruit and spice on the Z-leaning pheno..👌

Both plants have almost stopped growing in heigth now and are in full flowering mode now. Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) Plant #1 is 15 cm shorter than plant #2, but a little bushier. Both have grown very well and are strong and healthy. They get more and more flower clusters now and start to fill up all branches. Trichomes start to appear all over...the plants start to get sticky and develop a weak sweet aroma now. Its time to take off the biggest fan leaves now for defoliation, I took a round of pics before and after.

Last week of veg,now start floração..

🌼 White OG - Week 1 Flower Strain: White OG by Seedsman Seeds Stage: First Week of Flower Grower: DogDoctor Pot: 30L Fabric Pot Medium: PRO-MIX HP Mycorrhizae Lighting: FOG LED Controller: TrolMaster Environment: 🔆 Light Schedule: 11/13 (Light/Dark) 💧 pH: 5.9 ⚡ EC: Clean and steady (Aptus Clean Mix) 🌡️ Room Temp: Stable & thriving ⸻ 🌗 The Flip – 11/13 Light Schedule This week, we make the cosmic shift from VEG to FLOWER 🌙. We’re flipping our light schedule to 11 hours ON / 13 hours OFF, and yes—it’s intentional. While the typical flower schedule is 12/12, here’s why DogDoctor runs 11/13: 🌓 Faster Flower Induction: Less light = a stronger signal to the plant: “It’s time to bloom!” Many growers, especially with OG genetics, report quicker flower onset with 11/13. 🌓 Myth vs. Magic: Some say you lose yield—not necessarily true. With tight SCROG, proper nutrition, and a long veg like we’ve done, we’re set up for big, quality flowers. 🌓 Mimicking Nature: Outdoor growers know—late-season light drops fast. This method mirrors the natural rhythm and can enhance terpene production in some strains. 🌬️✨ ⸻ 🛠️ Still Keeping It Clean – Aptus Holland Program We stick with the Aptus Clean Line—light yet powerful. 💧 Regulator – Keeps her structure strong and focused 💧 System Clean – A clean root zone is a happy root zone 💧 RO Water Conditioner – Optimal water for nutrient absorption 💧 All-In-One Liquid – Full-spectrum feed, balanced and precise No need to overdo it—simplicity is our secret weapon. 🍃 ⸻ 🌿 SCROG + Chill White OG is filling up the Scrog net beautifully, stretching and flexing into her new rhythm. She’s bouncing back from last week’s heavy defoliation like a champ. But now? 💡 We leave her be. This week is sacred. We let her settle, stretch, and initiate bloom. No major pruning, no big changes—just light tucking into the net and observation. The goal is low stress, high vibe. ✨ ⸻ 📣 Gratitude & Shoutouts Forever grateful to the crew behind the scenes and in front of the screen: 🌱 Seedsman Seeds – for these amazing genetics 🌱 Aptus Holland – for their game-changing clean feed 🌱 Future of Grow LEDs – bringing the light to life 🌱 TrolMaster – climate kings 🌱 PRO-MIX Soil – root magic 🌱 GrowDiaries – the home of plant passion 🌱 The Community – friends, fam, lovers, haters, growers, dreamers—you ALL matter in this space. 📢 Come hang with us on Instagram [@DogDoctorOfficial] 🎉 And don’t miss the 1st Edition of the Dognabis Cup—a community celebration of growers, heart, and soul. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts The transformation begins.
