Harvested the Clones! I'm stoked how #4 grew out, I think she's the winner! With limited space in my grow, I'm only going to be able to bloom out the rest of the phenos clones to week 3-4.. The show must go on.. It's the price I must pay for using non-ideal cloning methods... Next round of phenohunting will have 100% cloning success, using my new aeroponics cloning machine.

💛 Nectar Drip – Week 1 Report “Where Gold Meets Light” ──────────────────────────────────────── 🌱 Week 1 – The First Breath of Life The moment the soil trembles… that’s when the story truly begins. Both seeds from the Zamnesia Seeds x TICAL – Nectar Drip collaboration have officially broken ground this week — small, fragile, perfect. The first days of life are always humbling. You’re holding a miracle between your fingers, and all you can do is create the best environment possible and let nature write its opening lines. This week was all about environmental finesse, gentle nourishment, and setting the tone for the golden journey ahead. 🌡️ Environment – Cradling the Seedlings Week 1 is the world of high humidity, soft warmth, and minimal stress. We’re keeping things in a range that allows delicate seedlings to hydrate through their leaves while their roots slowly learn their role. Relative Humidity: 80–90% Temperature: ~26°C Water pH: ~6.8 Lighting Intensity: ~300–400 PPFD (gentle, steady, supportive) The seedlings sit inside clear humidity domes, helping maintain those elevated moisture levels and creating that soft condensation you captured so beautifully in your macro shots. That glistening surface — droplets clinging to plastic like morning dew — is part of the magic of early life. Airflow this week stays intentionally minimal. Seedlings don’t need wind — they need peace, warmth, and stability while their roots establish the first bridges of life beneath the surface. Nutrition – Micro-Doses & Gentle Introduction Although seedlings can technically thrive on water alone at this stage, I prefer — as you do — to introduce a micro-touch of nutrition from day one. Not to feed them in force, but to let them taste the mineral world slowly, helping them adapt and avoid any shock once true feeding begins later. This week, your solution sits around: EC/TDS: Extremely low (~0.5–0.6) Base Nutrient: Plagron Terra Grow (micro-dose) Root Support: Plagron Power Roots, at far below bottle recommendation — just a gentle whisper, not even half-strength It’s not about feeding — it’s about familiarizing. A handshake, not a meal. As the seedlings expand, they’ll already be in sync with the mineral base, making future transitions smooth and stress-free. Substrate – Bio LightMix: The Golden Bed The girls are standing directly in Plagron Bio LightMix, a substrate made for this stage. Light, airy, full of life — the kind of soil that embraces roots rather than restraining them. Bio LightMix ensures: Excellent oxygen levels Soft nutrient baseline appropriate for early development A hospitable environment for microbial allies Quick drainage and moisture balance This combination — gentle soil + gentle EC — creates harmony between organic micro-life and mineral precision. 💡 Lighting – Guided by the Hyper Red Glow This week, the seedlings grow under the Future of Grow Air Grow Pro III Hyper Red, controlled through the Future of Grow Nova 2C Pro controller. The spectrum is warm, rich, and deeply supportive of structural development and early root signaling. At 300–400 PPFD, the light gives enough energy for growth without overwhelming the seedlings. Later in the diary, we’ll go into: Dimmer curves Spectrum shifts Controller programming Photoperiod strategy And how each of these plays into maximizing the genetics of the Nectar Drip. For now, we’re focusing on gentle, golden beginnings. 📸 Macro Moments – Art in the First Week This week, you pulled out the Sony A6000 with the full-frame Sony macro lens — and you created art. Droplets shining like liquid diamonds. Delicate cotyledons emerging like newborn wings. Condensation captured like morning mist in a miniature world. Photography here isn’t decoration — it’s documentation of life unfolding at microscopic scale. Your shots of droplets, textures, and tiny structures elevate this diary into a visual story. This is how people feel the grow. 🫧 Condensation – A Sign of Life, Not Neglect In high humidity seedling environments, condensation is a natural companion. It forms on domes, pots, even your lens — evidence of a warm, living biome working exactly as intended. We keep it in check, monitor airflow, and ensure seedlings aren’t sitting in stagnant conditions, but overall: Condensation = Life is happening. ✨ Community & Gratitude – The Golden Circle This journey is carried by the hands and hearts of many. We deeply thank: Zamnesia TICAL Plagron Future of Grow for their trust, innovation, banners, and support in making the Nectar Drip run possible. But the greatest appreciation goes to… you — the community. To the lovers, the haters, the curious, the loyal, the new arrivals, the silent observers, and the loud critics. Everyone is welcome here. Everyone brings something to the table. Critics sharpen us. Supporters fuel us. Together, we create something bigger than a grow: we create culture. Thank you all for believing in DogDoctorOfficial. Thank you for riding this golden wave with us. 🌟 Week 1 Summary – The Golden Start The Nectar Drip is alive. Both seedlings have sprouted. Environment is stable. Nutrition is gentle. Light is perfect. Soil is breathing. Photos are shining. And the story is unfolding exactly as it should. This is the week where dreams sprout. Where gold meets soil. Where potential becomes visible. And we’re only just beginning.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 #Zamnesia #TICAL #NectarDrip #GoldenGrow #Plagron #FutureOfGrow #CannaKan #GrowDiaries #SeedToGold 📸 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 A6000 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens. 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.

Day 23 We were 3 days absent. I think the Lamp was a bit far away. Lots of stem growth. Next time we better top them early.. I don' really like how they grow so tall and thin. and I think I prefer earlier topping. Not sure why people like to top after 5th node so much. But everything is still fine:) They show signs of hunger I guess. We will feed them today full dose bio grow. Day 25 Today them was put out on the sill:) All looking good so far. Day 27 almost last day of week 4 everything is looking good:) some hairs going on, weather is shit but they seem to like it. hope we will see some pre flowering going on next week. new week will be an interesting update, weather is looking good next week 5...

All is good in the Scroggernaut and the plants are taking to their hempy buckets. Ladies were topped this week and responding well. VPD is on point as can be seen by the way the leaves are praying to the skies. The lighting is just killing it and Im not even cranked up yet. Trying to fiddle and keep the seedling plants on the other table close to the same size as the coco hempys, so Im using slowing techniques like early defo and light deprivation on the seeds. Really looking forward to what this strain has to offer and hope to get some variance in the phenos.

Marker is thriving, enjoying its meals as usual. The only change is its delightful berry scent, rather than the expected gassy aroma. Keep up the good work, and let's see how its flavors develop further! 🌿🍇

Ok just finnished a blunt of this a out an hour ago, and I do not smoke blunts lol But it seems only right too do a real smoked reveiw , So the fbt7 has been dry now for about 2 weeks and in a jar and today was the day too take the first bud too try so I rolled a fat one " fat one in photos lol , So for me the flavour just isn't there yet and am hoping that will come after a cure , So I smoked this all too my self and qiukly , Within a few minutes I went white as a ghost as was twitching the the corner hehehe, This is very strong bud and I would go as far as saying it's probably the strongest bud I've had in years , I am what I would describe as a joker smoker , as I turn my bud into oils and do not smoke it , But any serious cannabis smoker will absolutely love this strain , Well done fast buds and thank you :)

Week 21 - It's a JUNGLE! I'm back and OMG! She's so big! Not only tall.... but... ROUND! I couldnt fit her into a picture, so did a video instead. Wow! She is really something! My Gardena autmatic AI watering system is working wonders. Fed her some nutrients today but I'm not sure I want her to grow more. The colas are taking shape, the buds are beginning to swell. Can't wait to taste these nugs

I was very surprised at the remarkable growth of both plants. Tree 1 gives me a clear view of the superiority of height compared to the previous week. The copper buds clearly show the enormous size, I am trying to increase the amount of nutrition to promote the maximum growth in size and taste.

~ AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System sponsored by GrowAce, featuring Strawberry Gorilla Auto by FastBuds ~ Well guy's and gal's here we go again on another exciting Autoflower run together! This time will be different as I will be doing a 'Hydroponic' run utilizing the AirCube Active Oxygen Ebb/Flow System by GrowAce, who were kind enough to sponsor me for this run, so it should be interesting to see what results I get and have some fun along the way! •Let me first tell you about this 6 Pot Ebb/Flow system from GrowAce: "The AirCube system is the one and only Ebb & Flow grow system on the market that combines the benefits of air pruning with a fully automated Ebb+Flow system! With the AirCube's proprietary fabric pot in bucket design, this system is guaranteed to outgrow any other Ebb + Flow system on the market. The results speak for themselves- grow MASSIVE roots that result in MASSIVE fruits! Air Pruning- Air Pruning only happens with fabric pots. As the roots reach the fabric walls of the pot, they penetrate and grow into the breathable fabric. Once penetrated, the roots are exposed to air, which causes the tips of the root to dehydrate and naturally prune themselves. This natural pruning process forces the roots to grow tons of lateral fibrous feeder roots. This results in a plant that utilizes the entire root zone and fills the entire pot with tons of roots. These fibrous feeder roots are incredibly effective in uptaking water and nutrients, resulting in a plant that grows healthier and more vigorously! Oxygen Benefits- Without oxygen, nutrient absorption cannot occur. On a molecular level, oxygen is needed to transmit nutrients across the cell walls and into the roots of a plant. With the AirCube's proprietary bottom lifted draining design, the system actively draws all of the water out of the bucket pulls vital oxygen into the root zone. Maximum Versatility with Any Grow Medium: The AirCube System is the only system on the market that allows you to use any growing medium you like. Use coco coir, soil, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, hydroton, rockwool or any other medium you wish! This system is the most versatile Ebb and Flow bucket system in today's hydroponics industry. Temperature Control- with the fabric pots constructed with highly porous polypropylene fabric, heat dissipates easily and effectively. Unlike standard plastic pots, heat isn't trapped in the root zone. Heat in standard plastic containers can reach temperatures of up to 125 degrees. When this type of heat is trapped and unable to escape, it can damage your plant's health and limit the potential of your harvest. Growing in the AirCube System, plant roots grow cooler, healthier, and more vigorous. Largest Pots in its Class- this system features 5 Gallon grow buckets, the largest pot size of any other ebb and flow hydroponic system in the market. Modular and Expandable- start with 6 grow buckets and expand up to 36 grow buckets with the optional 105 gallons PopTank reservoir!" For my medium and nutrients I decided to also switch things up from my regular Organic runs, going with Plagron Nutrients and Root Royale 70/30 Coco/Perlite. When filling the fabric pots with medium, I first added just under a gallon of horticulture perlite from Nor-Cal as a base layer to ensure good drainage and then filled the remainder with the Root Royale. •Now for one of my favorites, and award winning strain from my friends at FastBuds... Strawberry Gorilla Auto: I'll be running Strawberry Gorilla Autoflower which is a 55/45 Sativa/Indica Hybrid. "ATTENTION ALL! Due to our continuous efforts in evolving our breeding process, we are proud to confirm that our Strawberry Gorilla Auto has now become one of the most potent autoflowers in the world! Paving the way to our recent success where she ranked on top & brought home the gold at the very first American Autoflower Cup in California. Moreover, she proved that not only modern autoflowers can compete with photoperiods, but they can even beat them in their field. At the most recent edition of the Farmer’s Cup and competing against various photoperiodic strains, Strawberry Gorilla Auto took home the title of 'Highest Combined Terpenes' in the highly sought-after 'Home Grow Hash' category, with an impressive 97.163 mg/g total terpene content! Our exceptional genetic selection's crowning Strawberry Gorilla Auto strain is a spectacular hybrid known for producing yields of up to 600 gr/m2 in 70 days. This is a very manageable grow that can reach heights of up to 150 cm - due to its magnitude we recommend it for more experienced growers, as a huge plant may be a little overwhelming for first-timers. This show stopping sativa heavy hybrid is perfect as an all day smoke, producing a taste bud tingling, pungent berry and diesel terpene-rich flavor combo that leaves you with a grin from ear to ear, a perfect choice for those looking for a day-and-night autoflower!

Here we go! All three Tropicana Cookies are progressing through flower with the #3 still struggling. The #1 and #2 plants are both doing well, and are definitely two different phenotypes. The #1 plant is taller, bushier, with leaves that have long thin 'sativa' like fingers. While the #2 pheno is shorter, flowered faster, and has leaves that have more of a 'indica' structure to them. 12/15- I am continuing to drain/clean/refill the reservoir every 5 days and will be doing that first thing tomorrow after their last feed of the cycle. The #3 plant seems to be getting some better color in her lower sections, but still looks like crap up top. The #1 and #2 plants continue to impress me with their vigor and development. 12/17- Yesterday, I drained/cleaned/refilled the AirCube reservoir with 80L of well water, and then added the usual combination of Plagron nutrients ( Cocos 'A' & 'B', Green Sensation and Royal Rush) giving a total solution strength of 950ppm which I then ph'd to 5.6 @ 68℉. 12/19- Week 6 of flower's history and we're only 2-3 more weeks away from the finish for these lovely ladies from FastBuds! 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚
