Boy oh boy am I excited to see how this one finishes. Still 3 or so weeks out from harvest, but she will certainly be a good one. I cannot wait to see how she smells after a nice long cure.

420 Fastbuds Week 3 Blackberry Auto Hello hello. Hope everyone's grows is going well. This week the girls have grown quite a bit one especially. I did take off all major fan leafs to allow the lower branches to receive more light. Seeing some rust spots showing up so I'll introduce some calmag with the next feeding. Should fix that little issue. But over all Happy Growing

The ladies are sucking down lots of water. So much so that the ppm's got a little high and some burn set in. Topped off the reservoir with ro water and calmag only to bring ppm down. No worries, looking pretty good I think and will finish up strong. These are the biggest girl scout cookies from fast buds I have ever grown. I have defoliate lots and snipped tiny bud sites down a bit to let the energy go into the bigger buds. I am very susceptible to PM so it's crucial I have air flow and light penetration. Everytime I let defoliation go the PM starts to set in and it's so hard to eradicate 100%. Prevention, prevention, prevention.

Even she is 2 weeks younger than the others, she is keeping up with her sisters and she probably will be the first to get harvested. She got nice frost and is sticky af and i´m looking forward to test the first sherb terps 😋

Week 4 Day 3 Veg Only been 5 days since last post but I think Im going to flip these tomorrow I reckon they should fill out in first 2 weeks of flower. Really want to avoid a jungle given how close they all are to each other. All very healthy. One plant more on the LED side which makes it more filled out but tbf the plants on that side are much more vigouros, thicker stems and broader leaves etc. LED is controversial in bloom but in veg it kicks halide and florescent ass. Should I pull the net in tight and flip or what fam?

🌸 Lava Cake – Week 7 (3rd Week Flower) | Blossoms Rising The third week of flower has arrived, and our Lava Cakes are stepping fully into bloom. Both girls are looking beautiful, symmetrical, and strong, with thick white pistils reaching out and leaves still praying to the light. Their similarity in structure makes this run feel almost like growing twins, each reflecting the same genetics, each glowing with energy. ⸻ 🔙 Looking Back – The Road Here From seeds sprouting in soft cups → to vigorous veg under Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs → to the careful transplant and expansion in the 8x8 ecosystem, every stage has been about setting a solid foundation. • Feeding: Aptus core line + Plagron boosters • Training: Gentle guiding, letting them branch freely • Environment: Tuned by the TrolMaster brain, with sensors guiding irrigation and VPD All of this has brought us here: lush plants in early bloom, no signs of stress, and a canopy built for flower stacking. ⸻ 🍽️ Current Recipe – Staying Steady This week, we keep the same feed — consistency is key as the flowers set. Per L Water: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.5 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml With the Aptus All-in-One Liquid still paused, the soil’s embedded nutrition + pellets are helping balance things out while these bloom boosters do the heavy lifting. ⸻ 🌡️ Room & Rhythm • Temps: ~31–34°C (still awaiting the AC unit for stabilization) • Humidity: ~60%, bringing VPD near 1.9 kPa • Watering: Daily — plants are drinking heavily, irrigated once substrate moisture falls near 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS substrate sensor + Tent-X keep us informed on EC, moisture, and temps directly in-soil Even with warm conditions, the Lava Cakes are thriving, drinking more, praying more, and pushing out flowers with confidence. ⸻ 🌸 Week 3 Flower – What We See • White Hairs: Thick, long, and vibrant, covering the tops like cotton clouds. • Flower Formation: Calyxes stacking, pistils reaching — no signs of hesitation. • Leaf Posture: Still upright, showing photosynthesis and metabolism are strong. • Uniformity: Both plants showing the same pace and morphology, a sign of stable genetics and consistent environment. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – What to Expect / Not to Expect ✅ Expect: • Rapid stacking in the next 2 weeks — buds will start to swell noticeably. • Aroma development — sweet Lava Cake terpenes may start teasing the air soon. • Nutrient demands rising steadily as flowers form. ❌ Not to expect: • Big trichome coverage just yet — resin production typically comes later. • A slowdown — stretch is nearly over, but flower development is just beginning. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thoughts The Lava Cakes are shining this week. Both are aligned in their growth, both are drinking and feeding with rhythm, and both are showing that the careful setup, from lights to irrigation to sensors, is paying off. Week 3 of flower is a promise — not yet the harvest, but the first real glimpse of what’s coming. Thick pistils today, heavy buds tomorrow. With consistency in feeding, environment, and care, these girls are well on their way to becoming the stars of the room. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

This lady has been Transplanted on day 39 since she was planted and she will be grown with the complete biotabs organic line, I have applied for this 50L pot: 25g of startrex for every 5L of soil so I've used 250g of startrex in total, then I've dropped a spoon of mycotrex in the planting hole and when I finished I finally added 5 slow release tabs for this 50L pot, and then I watered right after the transplant with 1g of bactrex per liter of water and 1ml/L of orgatrex, this is gonna be a fun season, stay tuned everybody!!

We are nearing the finish line! Both ladies look great, and the delicious aroma wafting from the tent brings a smile to my face every time. I think we should finish the run in about two weeks. 🍋🍋🍋

👹 MonsterMarker – Week 7 | Flowering Start 🌸 This one is a real beast! 🚀 The roots are the most explosive of all my plants – absolutely insane growth underground 🌱. On top, she’s very stocky and strong, which makes me think there’s a lot of Indica genetics in her 🍃💪. The smell is already super nice – deep, rich, and very promising 🌿💨. She feels like she’s building the foundation for some serious flowers. Can’t wait to see how this monster evolves – follow along, it’s going to be fun 👹🔥. --- 👹 MonsterMarker – Woche 7 | Blütebeginn 🌸 Das hier ist echt ein Biest! 🚀 Die Wurzeln sind von allen Pflanzen am krassesten gewachsen – richtig verrücktes Wachstum unter der Erde 🌱. Oben ist sie dagegen sehr stämmig und kompakt, was stark nach einem hohen Indica-Anteil aussieht 🍃💪. Der Geruch ist schon jetzt richtig gut – tief, reichhaltig und sehr vielversprechend 🌿💨. Man merkt, dass sie gerade die Basis für dicke Blüten aufbaut. Bin gespannt, wie sich dieses Monster entwickelt – bleibt dran, das wird spannend 👹🔥.

Day 65, 14th of November 2020: Amazing week.... RQS Wedding Gelato does not strech a lot and pistils coming out nicely.... Original Sensible Seeds has amazing gentics they are so strechy except Black Ghost OG, rest of them crazyyyyyyy..... I also broke two of the sides from Gelato Original Sensible Seeds but fixed with tape and now all good lol 🤣🤣🤣 Pre flowers out and I really hope they stop growing lol. I also noticed that the Original Sensible Seeds strains have nice purple colours of the fan leave's stem. All the same fertilization happens every 2nd day with the mix above and ratio. One more thing: I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so they receive 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when they will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week....

Couldn’t be happier with how the growing going right now except for the heating issues which has caused the temperatures to rise tremendously next week I will be putting in my efforts to dial down temperature and humidity and hopefully make it so the AC doesn’t run 24 seven

For 30th April: The aroma in the tent is ramping up. It is pure correlation, but it seemed to have increased as soon as the UV light was installed. The white widows all have a delicate perfumed lemon mango smell. The gorilla glue is spice and pine. Ph is good at 6-7 in all four pots. Still fighting the deficiencies in one of the widows. The brown spots didn’t seem to slow down my last widow grow. But it also has very pointy leaves, where the other two younger widows have fat dark leaves. She’s bigger, older and hungrier than the other two. She might just need more feed. I need to keep the calmag going. I have been sporadic with it but I’ll make it a regular feed addition from now on.

Hello Diary, Titan F1 is definitely the most mature of all three plants on the Farm, and I think he will be the first to be ready in a few days. Looking under the microscope, the trichomes are mostly milky, so I'll let it go for a few more days. The flowers are hard and compact, very sticky to the touch and spread a wonderful sweet fragrance. The leaves are still a healthy dark green color, only a few leaves have turned yellow in the past three weeks, so I removed them. Still watering every three days. As of this week, I have stopped adding supplements, I only water with clean water that I lowered the pH value. The conditions on the farm are still good (unchanged), the temperature is around 28 degrees while the humidity is around 45%. Here's what it looked like last week. 18/06/2023 - Day 50. Watering. I prepared the usual 7 liters of water, lowered the p.H. at 6.0 I watered all three plants evenly with the hundredth amount. 21/06/2023 - Day 53. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 24/06/2023 - Day 56. Photography for the end of the 8th week and after that I watered the plants. That's all for this week, see you soon.
