Some are great, and then we have the midget crew. Sour livers is going to be BIG ( not into full flower ) Auto Blues has some massive leaves ( not into full flower ) Sour Crinkle is flowering nicely 24" tall Sour Stomper looks like it has been stomped and flowering Toof Decay well its just sad. F*** im bummed ( F*** it) Santa ana winds came back so its 78° and 0% humidity. See the pre flowers in the last 2 pics. That's #8 Sour livers. She is the one to watch. She is impressive. ( don't worry she is all female ) But she must be one tough female. That all folks, thanks for coming and have a good night. Sour Stomper and Toof Decay have been trashed. Killed both they just weren't going to come around. Pollinated sour livers on 2 / 2 / 18 on week 6, the structure was way to hard to pass up. She was pollinated outside of the greenhouse. I'm sure the pollen will spread. So the male is a photo ( Cherry pie × Bubble gum ) i will put photos of the males in update.

~July 5th-July 11~ 🌡️Temp: 🌞78-84 , 🌚74-80 💨Humidity: 🌞80-95%, 🌚70-90% 💡Lights: 🌞18h/6h🌚, 22’ from 🌱, PPFD approx-275 🌬️Airflow: 2 small oscillating fans and a 200cfm inline fan+carbon filter First set of pics from day 10, second from 14 ~Day 8~ Plants growing good. 2nd largest leaves were curled and figured I overwatered so I’ll leave them for a few days until soil is dry. The sprout I found trapped under soil is now replanted so there is 5 sprouts from the 10 random seeds. The only feminized seeds has been planted as well. ~Day 9~ Everything is growing great! The 2 smallest sprouts from the original 4 are showing signs of weird leaf growth but that’s to be expected with random seeds. The 2 larger ones are doing good but ones leaves are still curled. New sprout is doing great with first true leaves coming in. Fem seed hasn’t sprouted yet. ~Day 10~ Everything is looking great today. The new sprout is growing good and I have high hopes for the not yet sprouted fem seed. The 2 larger sprouts are still growing and 1s leaves are still curling but the soil is still moist so I’m waiting in the hopes I just overwatered. The 2 smaller sprouted still have weird leaves coming in. ~Day 11~ The fem seed still hasn’t spotted but the other plants look good, the new sprout is healthy and growing while the 2 larger sprouts are still growing but drooping a bit. Other sprout still is growing weird leaves but looks healthy. The burnt tips stem looks very weak and almost constricted and I have hope for it but I think it’s out of my control. This was to be expected with random seeds.. ~Day 12~ Unfortunately the sprout with burnt tips died and with further inspection it seems the seed lining suffocated the stem as it grew and it eventually died when it couldn’t get water and nutrients from its tiny stem. Other plants are doing good, slight leaf drooping still by the 2 largest plants which happen to be in the smallest pots so I really think they got overwatered and will bounce back because growth still looks healthy. Had to put larger downs on the 2 big sprouts because they were getting too big for their last bottle dome. Humidifier is also working great and keeping the tent RH about 75-85%. ~Day 13~ Plants look good I really hope the drooping stops with the 2 larger plants but they still look healthy, the weird mutated growth continues but it is growing more normal leaves now. The new sprout is doing good and the seed still hasn’t quite popped up but I can see it’s top through the soil. Took the domes off the larger sprouts now that the RH is constant and introduced them to the oscillating fans to promote healthy stems and help circulate air to promote growth and hopefully help dry the soil out a bit faster so they don’t get root rot. ~Day 14~ Plants are looking good, although under further inspection the newest seed didn’t make it which was the only feminized one of the bunch, not sure exactly what happened but it never was able to make it through the soil. The 3 other plants are showing slight signs of a deficiency or overwater as shown in the pictures so I’m definitely still waiting to water but going to start nutes next feed when they are better. Adjusted the lights to make sure the 4 remaining plants are all ok. The smallest sprout is also doing great.

Greetings, fellow growers and cosmic adventurers! As we bid farewell to Week 10, we find ourselves at the culmination of an extraordinary journey with our beloved Apolo F1. Join me as we embark on a retrospective voyage through the highs and lows, the triumphs and challenges, of this cosmic odyssey. Our journey with Apolo F1 began ten weeks ago, a small seedling filled with potential and promise. From those humble beginnings, she grew and flourished under our watchful gaze, unfurling her leaves and reaching for the stars with each passing day. Through meticulous care and nurturing attention, we witnessed her transformation into a true botanical queen. Throughout her growth cycle, we employed various techniques to coax the best from our cosmic companion. From LST to topping, we shaped and sculpted her canopy, encouraging lateral growth and maximizing light penetration. As a result, Apolo F1 flourished, her branches reaching skyward in a testament to the power of cultivation and the wonders of nature. Central to Apolo F1's journey was the nourishment provided by Aptus Holland, our steadfast companion and sponsor. With their nutrient lineup, we crafted a symphony of minerals and organic compounds, tailored to her specific needs at each stage of growth. From seedling to harvest, Aptus Holland's nutrients fueled her cosmic voyage, ensuring robust health and abundant yields. And now, the moment we've all been waiting for: the harvest. With bated breath and eager hands, we carefully snipped each bud from the canopy, marveling at their dense, resinous beauty. Apolo F1 had exceeded our wildest expectations, her compact stature yielding a bounty of cosmic goodness. As she hangs upside-down, her buds curing in the cool darkness, we reflect on the journey that brought us here—a journey filled with wonder, growth, and boundless possibility. Before we bid adieu, let us extend heartfelt thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for crafting the genetic marvel that is Apolo F1. Their dedication to excellence has brought joy and inspiration to growers around the world, and we are grateful for their contributions to our green adventures. Likewise, a shoutout to Grow Diaries and the entire community for their unwavering support and camaraderie. Together, we have cultivated a garden of dreams, and the harvest is sweeter for it. As we gaze upon Apolo F1, our cosmic queen, we are filled with a sense of pride and accomplishment. She is more than just a plant—she is a testament to the power of cultivation, the wonders of nature, and the boundless potential of the human spirit. Until we meet again, may your gardens flourish and your green adventures be ever cosmic.

Week 3 – Vegetation: Expanding the Ecosystem – Dual Zones, One Vision As the third week of vegetation wraps up, the Sunday Driver girls are not only thriving, they’re sharing a space that’s growing in both complexity and precision. This week, the spotlight shifts from the plants (which, yes, look phenomenal) to the gear, infrastructure, and environmental intelligence behind the grow. Because this tent is no longer a grow, it’s an ecosystem. ⸻ Dual Ecosystems – One Tent, Two Zones We’ve now split our 8x8 tent into two distinct grow zones, both under the unified control of the TrolMaster Tent-X system. Each zone is powered by its own lighting ecosystem: • Zone 1 – Future of Grow: High-efficiency full-spectrum LEDs delivering deep penetration and even canopy coverage. • Zone 2 – ThinkGrow Model Ones: New to the garden, ThinkGrow LEDs bring precision-tuned lighting, DLI-focused output, and seamless integration into the TrolMaster platform. This setup allows us to run simultaneous genetics or phases under controlled but separate lighting environments, while keeping everything under a single, centralized monitoring system. ⸻ TrolMaster – The Nerve Center Whether it’s Zone 1 or Zone 2, the TrolMaster Tent-X keeps everything synchronized and stable. Here’s what we’re running: • CO₂ sensor • PPFD sensor • Humidity & temperature probes • Camera feed (yes, even during “business” breaks in the bathroom) • Fan & intake relay controls This means real-time data, remote adjustments, alerts, and peace of mind—no guesswork, just grow logic. ⸻ Airflow, Exhaust & Filtration Air movement is just as important as light, and here’s how we’re handling that in this split-tent system: • Exhaust: Two 6” carbon-filtered systems • Spider Farmer exhaust linked to Spider Farmer GGS Controller • AeroFan exhaust connected to TrolMaster Tent-X • Intake: One 6” active intake pulling fresh air in • Carbon filters on every line, keeping air clean and odor controlled This creates a steady flow—draw in, scrub out, with each zone breathing comfortably in rhythm. ⸻ Current Feeding Routine Still watering by hand with love, and still keeping the nutrient mix clean, efficient, and appropriate for early veg: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml/L • Water stats: • pH – 5.83 • EC – 1.01 • Temp – 18.5°C The focus is still on root development, tissue strength, and stable vegetative expansion. ⸻ Visual Update & Setup Tour This week’s update includes a video walk-through of the setup, showing the airflow configuration, sensors, wiring, and the dual lighting rigs in place. No voice-over, just visual storytelling, but the system speaks for itself. ⸻ What to Expect Next We’re watching closely as each zone adapts to its light spectrum and rhythm. We’re expecting: • Continued even leaf expansion • Strong internal node development • Potential for early LST (low-stress training) next week • Data comparisons between Future of Grow and ThinkGrow zones No topping yet—we’re still in observation mode. This early phase is about letting the roots lead, then following with the foliage. ⸻ Final Thoughts – Harmony in Complexity This week, the garden evolved from a grow into a smart, multi-environment cultivation system. From the dual lighting zones to the climate controls, it’s all about precision meets intuition. Our Sunday Drivers are responding with wide, confident leaves and a calm presence. The tent feels alive. And with summer in full swing, everything, indoors and out, is reaching toward the light. — Your Grow Companion DD Dog Doctor Official 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Well it’s been a rough ride with this WW girl, She was veging on the side for quite a while and not in the best of conditions. Transferred her to CoCo and things went terrible. pH was good and nutes were good, but her roots weren’t the best of shape. She wasn’t growing and all her stems and main branch were turning purple, I thought not again, I foliar sprayed for a few days with epsom salt which helped a little, but I decided to Put her back to soil. I nurtured her back to health and I was able to do a little fimming and she responded very nicely after that. She now has a few friends beside her in the tent, which is my grow 3 & 4. Two Purple Kush and a northern light. Hopefully if all goes well I’ll be flipping the switch in 3 or 4 weeks. The new additions just finished their 2nd week of veg. Wish me luck, I certainly need it !

Apr 20: They hanging out at 65% rh and 65F.. Going for 7-10 day dry… No wet trim, cut plants in half and hung… Very happy with density and resin production… Can’t wait to jar and test in 2-3 weeks… I feel comfortable with this strain, I think it’s time to move on… Really wanna run some Mephisto seeds….

The Zenviations have been processed specifically differently I must say that they are both beautiful but one suffered the attack a little more even if he has very dignished flowers. The low one has a few beasts as you but you seem to end up great, hopefully good

Week 11 for Black Lebanon by SSSC Growth wise i don't feel that she's growing very much only thing i really notice from the pics is she might be filling in a little. Last week was another hot hot week but we are coming down to the low 30's again for the rest of the upcoming week so think the plants will be happier. I wish the growing area wasn't so sheltered to wind as i feel like these bigger girls would really benefit from it. This week ive tried to water wayyyyy more than i have due to the hot weather, she got 15L some days & 7L other days but nearly everyday.

The High intensity was to strong (clearly my fault) in the beginning which stunted her overall stretch, she however still delivered super dense, terpene and trichome loaded buds.

Happy to report that Miss Mango Kush survived 1 hail storm and the dog days of summer. Temperatures reached 100* and Gorilla Cookies weather the heat like she weathered the hail storm. Completely resistant to both. She was an easy grow. The only problem was me, the grower. I should be ashamed that I tried using Miracle Grow as an experiment. Glad I figured it out half way through the grow and changed my nutrient to @AdvancedNutrient Jungle Juice. Her wet weigh in was 64.12 grams and I am excited to see what her dry weight and smoke report will be. Thanks for following me in this grow. As always, comments are wonderful and I like hearing from you. DRY BUD WEIGHT IS .815 OZ--NOT A LOT BUT PRETTY GOOD WITH THE EXTREME HEAT AND HAIL STORM.
