Smooth sailing at this point... I have just a few key things to discuss going forward this week. No more nitrogen being fed to these plants at this point. My PK booster has no nitrogen, and I plan on using it once or twice more. The majority of nutrition at this point is coming from the rooted leaf Cal-Mag fuel which is an organic source of food. I've also been using the Golden Tree 0-0-2 but unfortunately I ran out this week. To replace it, I'll be using an organic black strap molasses. My temperatures have also dropped at night. By by about 7° c. My daytime temperatures are down two or three degrees Celsius. CO2 dosage is set to 800 parts per million

Bud development is really nice. Now you can clearly see purple buds, starting to produce a layer of resin. The purple from spreads from the inside to the sugar leaves, leaving a nice colour. The smell to this point, is not that strong. But she smells like a doughy overripe fruit, very sweet, but not yet like a cherry. I'm excited to see, how it's gonna turn out in the end. She is not a thirsty plant and is not asking for a lot of nutrients. I just added a small mixture of bloom fertilizer, just to prevent deficiency symptoms. O guess she will take another 5 to 6 weeks, to become fully ripened. So far the plant is really easy to handle , just don't overfeed her and she is running on her own.

What a week. Set up my new light today, next week should be 🔥 Had a mishap during lst and broke one of my better branches. I bandaged her with frog tape without wrapping it. She responded well and is back at it. Think I’ll leave the tape and let her break through it. I’m going to start eyeing changes with my nutes now that I expect her to drink more under this light. I will likely start watering more than twice a week. Right now she gets 1L every 3-4 days. Lemme know what you think. I’m stoked fr.

Chimera was 🔥 I got 8oz and a 1/2 . 4oz from the more purple leafs one and the least purple leafs had 4 and 1/2oz and i broke one top main branch by accident .Had 50 grams of sugar leaves and 100 grams of regular fan leaves ! Made 100g of regular fan leaves to 1 stick of butter and was night night i didnt think it would work but it actually did !! 😆 The more purple one smells and taste fruity and sweet and the other less purple was smelling like gas and now smells and taste like straight lemon 🍋!!⛽️ 🔥 💣 Next grow will be 12 clones in 2 gallon square pots in 100% coco and automatic watering every 6hrs and switching from Fox Farm to Athena blended nutes and see what happens !!!! 😆

Good morning, weekly update time! We just finished up week 3 of veg as we land on day22 now. I noticed these ladies like it a little cooler as anything over 80 gives me some tacoing 🌮! I dropped lights on temp to 79 and have humidity at 70, I slowly changed vpd from .9 to 1 over the week ! The girls recovered from mainlining quickly and needed their first training, because of that I started using silica to harden up those trained mains! From here on out I’ll give fish shit and silica every other watering. The ladies got their bi weekly top dress of 1/4 cup worm castings to keep all that natural goodness working into the soil and down to the roots. I’m very happy with the way the run has progressed !

Nothing to be mentioned, the plants reek like crazy, I cannot keep tent open for too long without stinking up the entire house. Other than that, they are freaking amazing. Will probably start flushing next week, if the trichomes start turning brown. Loving this strain, sooooo strong and tasty and this clone looks even better than the plant.

I’m really just updating with photo dumps at this point lol but this white widow is proving to be f*cking massive and these buds are looking like they’re going to STACK!!! I defoliate here and there lightly and open the canopy to get some light further down. She fills a 2x2 out completely! My next run will consist of a few of these for sure!! Should be a great harvest!!

Day 73: Removed her from higher powered LED light to 100W "equivalent" Ygrow LED lighting. I'm giving her a break from heat, while still getting some of the benefits of my Phlizon 1000 watt "equivalent" that hangs partially over her. She will probably remain here for the rest of her life. :) The past two grows I put under lower light, near the end of their bloom cycles, seemed to get fat fat. Not sure if it's coincidence. She is already fairy thick in dense buds! I have also increased her water this week, as I flush out nutrients prior to harvesting. Day 75: Heavy defoliation.

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 5 (First Week Flower) | Pre-Bloom & Heat Talk 🌿 The Lava Cakes have officially stepped into their flowering tent… though, to be fair, they’re still enjoying a little extra veg time before showing pistils. Both phenos are healthy, lush, and stretching beautifully, clearly ready for the show ahead. ⸻ 📸 Photo Studio Glam We took them out for another studio shoot, bright lights, clean background, and every angle showing off their deep greens and perfect branching. Soon, their beauty will be dressed in flowers, but for now, the leaf structure alone is worthy of the spotlight. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C Yes, the temperature is running hot — AC unit is on the way to lock it back into our ideal zone. ⸻ 💬 Heat in the Grow Room – Risks & Benefits Potential Risks: • Faster substrate drying = more frequent irrigation needed • Higher transpiration rates can stress plants if roots can’t keep up • Slightly increased risk of light stress at high PPFD without proper cooling • Possible reduced terpene retention if sustained into late flower Possible Benefits (short term in veg/pre-flower): • Accelerated metabolism — plants grow and stretch faster • Increased water/nutrient uptake (if well-fed and watered on time) • Can improve CO₂ usage efficiency if levels are high enough Bottom line: As long as they’re hydrated, fed, and ventilated, short bursts of high temp are manageable. But for flowering, we want to keep daytime temps closer to 24–28°C for optimal quality. ⸻ 💧 Watering Strategy We water when the soil dries to about 25% moisture remaining, this encourages: • Stronger root growth searching for water • Better oxygenation of the root zone • Less risk of root rot in warm temps Right now: They’re drinking daily due to the heat, so we’re feeding daily as well. ⸻ Current Feeding (per L of water) • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml With the increased drinking rate, nutrient uptake has increased — meaning no signs of deficiency, just steady lush green. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC installation will stabilize temps, allowing tighter VPD control • First signs of pistils should appear within the next 7–10 days • We’ll begin adjusting feed ratios for early bloom once flowers set • Light intensity will climb further as stretch continues ⸻ 💚 Closing Note: This week is all about momentum, heat or no heat, the Lava Cakes are pushing upward, prepping themselves for a heavy flower load. The environment tweaks are on the way, and we’re building them the perfect stage for their bloom performance. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Buenas tardes familia, actualizamos la semana de las northern light xL, e de decir que es la más lenta del proyecto, aún así se ven como se forman unas buenas flores, por lo general compactas, iremos viendo por que todavía las va quedando. PH Muy controlado , a estas alturas por encima del 6,2. Ya les quitamos productos y pronto lavaremos raíces.

Ok brothers and sisters i had a minor drawback regarding to external weather so conditions like ventilation and how much heat generates the lights itself were on check on this week, i peaked with 28°c and 30% humidity, so that explain also the increased ddistance between the lights and the plants , as temperatures are on the rise. Additional height control through some lst and changing positions at ones possibly where the stem and branches lignificated and the support plays no role anymore in order to control the new stems , thus avoid hitting top bulb or side bulb radiation , or ventilators or other plants - food scheme stays on the stimulant side with the exception of barrier as i'm spraying as long as i can during flowering . probably until end of month. on the side note the autoflowering one is a bit behind compared to the others but is not that bad - for now. finishing result should be monitored if density and potency was affected by non optimal photoperiod for that one gal. Kind regards :) .

Wow I am amazed at the growth in the last week. I did end up losing the one grease gun but I started a new seed and so far it is off to the races. This past week I have been running the rhize veg along with hygroben hygrozyme and hyshield. Plants are loving it! So tomorrow I am topping two and going to leave two just to see the difference in growth. All plants are attached to the same reservoir so they all have access to the same nutrients solution! I also have some exciting news I am getting a UVA light for this grow so I am really excited it should be here this week!

Day 49. Those buds are now really starting to swell up. They also produce a very lovely smell🤩 A few days ago I also changed the light colour from blue and red to only red. We'll see how the buds will react to that.

This week, my Titans are sleeping in a cooler dark room until harvest. So for your viewing pleasure, I've loaded some videos made of the Titans during there time with me. I'm wondering what to serve at my Queens Tea Party... I made some butterscotch pistachio bars and modified the recipe for less sugar. 😋 We experimented with topping the bars with black cherry spread, orange marmalade and a mango jelly. All are very tasty as the bit of sour/tart enhances the butterscotch sweet. A few solar eclipse pics.
