Forgot to mention that I topped them at some point a couple of weeks back and it worked wonders. Trimmed them for the first time and wow did they like it! That's about it. Too tired now to remember anything else. Oh yeah I installed one of those terrarium ceramic bulbs that just heat up without emitting light but it seems like it's not needed

This plant was grown in pure coco with 30% perlite, one watering a day untill runoff, at the mid flowering i water once every 12hours. She does get very bushy and puts on all the weight at the end of flowering so i was a bit worried first but she blew up

Hey Growers. Things are going well in the Cindy tent. They are all at various stages, but making good progress this week. A lot more trichomes on the advanced 2 and bud structure on the straggler. I removed some larger fans blocking bud sights and cleaned up the underneath of the straggler. I am just watering when dryish and adding a bit of monster bloom. I am also moving the XS2000 from side to side to decrease light stress and pump them with as much light as possible. No need for any Gaia Green this week. Happy Growing 🌱

4/15/25 This plant is blowing my freaking mind. Long stacked colas. Even the lower buds are plumping up like golf balls. This is an exceptional plant so far. Shes starting to show the classic "sherbert" purple that ive noticed shows up with anything that has sunset sherbert in the lineage. Some of the leaves are starting to fade slightly and the purple is coming in. The rs11 that this seed came from, produced the most from a single plant out of all plants ive grown and trained and kept that small. She yielded 3.5 ounces or a 1/4lb of top nugs from a plant that was only about 18 inches tall and vegged for 6 weeks before flip. Once i start to clear out all of the fan leaves later on in flower, its just going to be buds running the length of the stems 4/18/25 I really believe this may be a keeper. She is absolutely stunning. Just everything is perfect. She has super long stacking of buds up and down the stems. Im actually super stoked to see how she finishes up. One of the craziest parts is that shes in a plastic 2 or 3 gallon pot and this plant is going to yield insane.

Week 3 Flower – Sundae Driver From Seed to Now This journey started just five weeks ago from seed. We ran a very short veg, only about two weeks, before flipping to flower. Even with the short veg, these Sundae Driver phenos have been relentless growers: strong branching early on, healthy node spacing, and an impressive stretch once the light cycle changed. In Week 1 of flower, we switched to 11 hours on / 13 hours off to encourage a faster transition, and by Week 2, the girls had already shot past the 111 cm mark. Now, in Week 3, they’re tall, thriving, and showing no signs of slowing down. The girls are reaching for the sky, tall, elegant, and stretching with no signs of slowing down. Each day they surprise me with just how much vertical growth they’re putting on. I’m curious (and a little nervous!) to see how big they’ll eventually get. Nutrients & Additives This week, we introduced a new layer to the feed program by combining Plagron additives with our existing Aptus lineup. Here’s the full mix (all at 1 ml/L): • Plagron Power Buds – Bud stimulator to support mid-flower. • Plagron Green Sensation – All-in-one bloom booster with PK, sugars, and micronutrients to push flower development. • Plagron Sugar Royal – Amino-acid-rich formula to help boost energy and aroma production. • Aptus Regulator – For plant strength, nutrient efficiency, and stress resistance. • Aptus CalMag Boost – Maintaining balanced calcium and magnesium levels under high growth rates. The idea is to test how the Plagron additives perform alongside Aptus products. So far, the results look promising. Training & Canopy Management No heavy training, just gentle leaf tucking. Large fan leaves are being bent or tucked under branches so light can reach the bud sites without removing too much foliage. This keeps the plant energy flowing while opening up the canopy naturally. Environment • Day Temp: ~26°C • Humidity: ~67% • VPD: ~1.10 kPa (not textbook perfect, but the plants are adapting beautifully) • pH: ~6.5 • Soil Moisture: Letting it dry down to ~19% before watering, sometimes even closer to 9% in hotter moments. Lighting & Gear The girls are thriving under the Future of Grow LED fixtures, with the filtered, even spectrum keeping the canopy happy. I’ve also introduced an automated irrigation system in the tents, still testing whether to fully hand over watering duties to the system or keep a hybrid approach with some hand-watering for closer control. Extras & Comfort Yes, I had a little fun with the camera this week, a casual photo session in the "studio" (plants only in their natural “outfits”), and a special shout-out to Zamnesia for their incredibly comfortable gear. Think rugby-polo style shirts, perfect for long hours in the grow or behind the camera. What to Expect Next Week • Expect: First signs of full flower set, with more defined pistils and the earliest stacking patterns starting to show. You may also see a slowdown in vertical growth as the plants redirect more energy to flower production. • Not to Expect: Heavy trichome development just yet, it’s still a bit early for full resin production, though sugar leaves may start to sparkle. • Keep an Eye On: Environmental stability. With humidity in the upper 60s, watch for microclimate pockets that could encourage mold once flowers start stacking. Closing Reflection From seed to now, this run has been a fast, exciting climb. A short veg, an early flip, and now a careful mix of trusted Aptus products with new Plagron additives, it’s been an experiment in precision and adaptability. The girls are loving their environment, thriving under Future of Grow LEDs, and pushing toward their full flowering potential. The next few weeks will tell just how much they can deliver, but one thing’s for sure: the journey so far has been beautiful. 🔗 Gear links available on request 💬 Always here to talk flower, stretch, or any topic regarding gardening 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Reduzi um pouco os fertilizantes e parei de subir o PH , as plantas reagiram bem e as manchas sumiram. As cores estão vindo a menor esta com 35 cm , a mais colorida com 56 e a maior que as cores estão começando a aparecer esta com 64 cm.

Hey everyone 👍. Unfortunately, a big mistake happened to me. I forgot to do the update weeks ago and have now lost the old pictures 😭, so unfortunately there will be harvest pictures of the leftovers on the whole grow 😥. I can report positives about the strain as far as growing is concerned, but unfortunately not my type of strain that I like. I will definitely try the variety again one day from another supplier :-).

Ciao Bros e Sis! CIAO! : D Ok, let's see how these girls are... Royal AK - she seems like to be the queen of this grow. Strong, fast, and resistant. I will transplant her in a 11lt Airpot with coco, new thing for me! Candy Kush - she's fine, for real. Topped Special Kush #1 - Good, but she's a little "tiny", don't you think? Speedy Chile - well, she's growing fine, but had some kind of genetics problem, maybe... She's topped herself 😅 Ocean Gangster Kush - Nice, even if the colors are strange, and some leaf have wrinkles, let's see how she will grow. Coco also for her, in the future. Pink Doctor CBD - the oldest on is growing, but I don't get where she want to go, really! The other bean has popped, so let's hope in no problem for her UK Cheese auto - guys, she's really strong and fast! Developing preflowers at day 22 from pop! I want to leave all the questions aside and try some HST on this auto, I've never trained an auto before! That's all, for now. Come back for the next update, meanwhile stop and have a chat with me, mates! Ciao!
