Start of week 4. Blue Dream has recovered nicely from the stress she experienced during week 3. She handled the 7 day stretch between feedings with minimal issues, even better than the GG4. Until next week, happy growing everyone!

Another noteworthy update in my cannabis cultivation journey has unfolded. I've introduced 'Rhino Skin' into the nutrient regimen for the plants. Known for its silica-rich composition, this supplement is designed to strengthen the cell walls of the plants, enhancing their resistance and robustness. We are now in the twilight of the vegetative stage, and the plants are absorbing the final days of growth-focused care. When the current nutrient tank is depleted, I will initiate the eagerly awaited transition into the bloom phase. In anticipation of this transition, I have prepared a bloom-specific nutrient mix that will encourage the plants to produce the lush, resinous flowers we all look forward to. This shift not only marks a new stage in the life cycle of the plants but also ushers in a period of excited anticipation as we edge closer to the fruition of my efforts.

As Moby Dick tiveram 100 % de germinação, essa é a maior de todas e a mais rápida também. Vou seguir o diário só com ela , mas tenho mais duas na estufa.

Moved her to new 80x80 tent where she has a lot more space to spread. She's showing signs of potassium deficiency and they are accelerating. I increased her nutrients despite signs of burnt tips on the top leaves. I am confident it is not lock-out. She seems to be a guzzler.

Day 56 -looking good for the most part. however i ahve onethat just turned completly yellow. i gave it some calmag, but IDK...

A pocas semanas de terminar, lamentablemente algunos de mis frascoa principales de BioBizz perdieron propiedades y eficacia ya que llevaban mucho tiempo guardado. PH muy ácido en el suelo debido a esto. Tuve que regar mucho con agua y cambiar el fertilizante a esta maravilla mineral con pH Perfect (Advanced Nutrients), es esto para no terminar sin peso.

Day 72 of flowering... Its been 10 weeks goin in week 11 now... So last week i started to give her some nutes again cause she stil had a lot of clear trichomes... And figured she could use some nutrition ... Still i dont see any amber trichomes on the buds... Leaves startin to degrade will stop feeding her i think this week... (**Outdoor plant**) i took some small branches of from the lower part that were growing slow Also did a micro lolypop so she will send more energy to the main buds on each branch.. We dont want small fluffy buds ey... Hot weather this week ... she is lovin it She drinks about 1 liter with nutrition (pokon bio) 6.5 ph) evry day or evry 2 days... See u guys next week 🌴👍

They all turned pretty red and cloudy. Decided they were good enough at this point. Another week would have turned them more into a couch lock. The tests have been pretty awesome. It's some very dense and sticky bud. The buzz comes on pretty hard after a minute. It's a creeper kinda deal. Serious eyelid droop with this. Sleep is not a problem. Burn a joint and you'll sleep like a baby for a good couple hours. Very sedating.

Day late on the update, pics/vids were taken on time tho just been a crazy week of harvests and trimming and keeping up with these. I transplanted all of them into 1 gallon bags 4 days ago from today. I linked up with Rain Science Grow Bags on Instagram and got them to offer all my followers and friends a discount of 10% off entire order from their site with the code ' bangdang ' so if anyone is in the market for a pot upgrade use that code. I got them in the mail 3 days after I ordered. Reason I went with Rain Science is because they offer identical air flow for rapid growth as the radicle bags, just using a different material and a tighter knit so water doesnt flood out the sides during feeds and when you pick these up when the coco is dry, it wont fly all over the tent like with the radicles. They're the optimal bag for autoflowers especially. These will get transplanted to the 3 gals before the flip and the flower tent is clearing out now. Just have to do a heavy cleanup and rearrange some shit and in they go.

Getting a growth spurt on switched to flower mode on the 600w led, installed the extractor and carbon filter as it's getting to smell a little fruity even at this stage. Lite feed in this early stage with the listed nutes, seem to be responding well. 17/10 Defoliated today and made a CBD smoothie from the lower canopy with almonds, apple, lemon and lime, the leaves were very fresh, it was pretty nice. Looking forward to the next defoliation, there are many health beenefits using all of the cannabis plant so i'm making the most of her as the grow progresses. https://www.medicaljane.com/category/cannabis-classroom/consuming-cannabis/juicing/#introduction-to-juicing-cannabis

🌸 Week 5 Flower – RollerCoaster Haze 🌸 The RollerCoaster Haze girls are thriving in mid-flower, building structure and stacking buds at an incredible pace. Both phenos are stretching into the canopy with strength, white pistils everywhere, and flower sites developing beautifully. The plants are balanced, vibrant, and showing no signs of stress, just healthy, determined growth. 💧 Nutrition & Feeding This week we’ve adjusted the recipe, stopping the All-in-One Liquid completely as the soil and pellets still provide plenty of slow-release nutrition. The focus now is on a lean, targeted bloom feed, keeping the roots active without oversaturating. Current recipe (all at 1ml/L): • Aptus Regulator • Aptus CalMag Boost • Plagron Green Sensation • Plagron Sugar Royal • Plagron Power Buds Solution runs steady at pH 6.0–6.1 with EC balanced to complement the soil’s reserves. The results speak for themselves: stalks, roots, and leaves are thriving, and the flowers are coming on strong. Environment • Soil Temp: ~24°C • Room Temp: ~28–29°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 kPa Airflow, extraction, and monitoring keep the conditions stable. Despite the size of these girls, they’re handling the environment perfectly. 💡 Inner Canopy Lighting – ICL300 This week I want to highlight the role of the ICL300 inner canopy lights. These lights are designed to deliver light where traditional overhead fixtures can’t: deep inside the canopy. Why does this matter? • As plants stretch and leaves overlap, the lower branches and bud sites often receive far less light. Without supplemental lighting, these inner flowers stay smaller, less dense, and less developed. • Inner canopy lights like the ICL300 solve this by pushing photons directly into those shaded areas, ensuring the lower and middle buds get the energy they need to bulk up. Spectrum: The ICL300 units provide a balanced white spectrum with a red push, tailored to maximize flowering response while avoiding heat stress. This means not only are the tops getting stacked, the inner and lower flowers are also swelling, making for a more even, consistent harvest. The difference is visible already: the RollerCoaster Haze girls aren’t just top-heavy. The mid-canopy sites are developing beautifully, with structure filling out in layers instead of just one dominant top. 🌼 Pistils: White Hairs Everywhere At Week 5, pistils (the fine white hairs that emerge from each calyx) are one of the clearest signs of flower development. They serve two major purposes: • Reproduction: pistils are part of the female flower’s reproductive system, designed to catch pollen if it’s present. • Growth indicator: the color, abundance, and orientation of pistils give us a direct look into the maturity of the flower. Some genetics push out bright white pistils, while others lean slightly toward cream, yellowish, or even orange tones earlier in bloom. This variation is completely normal and tied to the plant’s lineage. At this stage, the RollerCoaster Haze girls are full of vigorous white pistils, standing tall and reaching outwards. This shows they are actively building flowers and pushing energy into new calyx formation. It’s also a reminder that this week is about observation: watching how the pistils evolve will tell us not only about maturity, but also about how each pheno expresses itself. Later on, pistils will darken and curl inward as the calyxes swell, but right now, their abundance and brightness are a clear signal of healthy, strong flowering. 🌱 Observations • Bud sites are stacking with strong pistil production. • Inner canopy looks healthy and productive thanks to the ICL300. • Plants remain lush, green, and full of energy. • Root systems are still vigorous, visible at the soil surface. ✨ Reflection Week 5 Flower shows how balance in nutrition, environment, and lighting can work together to create truly explosive growth. By dialing in the recipe, highlighting pistil development, and introducing inner canopy lighting, we’re not only supporting the tops but ensuring that every bud site gets its chance to shine. The RollerCoaster ride continues, and these girls are carrying us higher every week. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Day 47 ( 10 Days flowering): My last to update but by no means my least.!!. This strain is my favourite grower at the moment. This could change on harvest of the 4 strains but for her growing and training , she stomps it for me. # 1 In the living organic soil ( LOS ) is the biggest by a mile. This medium is a winner for me. The ease of use and the results for very little input now are amazing. Her pot is teeming with green life to keep her mulch layer active , her limbs are thick and ready to hold weight and she is covered in great bud sites. My clear favourite of the grow right here. Her buds are still looking very young but I suspect her slower building will be her sativa leaning and I think she will be one of the last out .lol #2 is keeping her pace with her sister quite well. There is a big difference in sizes which could be pot size but I suspect more medium based. She is a fair size and will be a good yielder. #3 As with the other strains, is the smaller of the 3. Coco and Mc cannot keep pace with their organic competition it seems. She is formed really well beneath the canopy and her limbs are nice and thick for holding the huge buds she will pack on. All in all , a great week and more to come.

Week 7 flower | Pushed light intensity on these Think about it, you're pounding on the fault line What'll it take to get it through to you, precious?

Unfortunately 2 Caligen ladies died. The weather is pretty good. Watering once 2-3 days.

One didn't get hit enough water from the sprinkler so it got stunted hard and had to go, the plan was to only do 2 this run so all good, I used this one in a breeding experiment and it recovered very well despite the conditions, but this is not part of this diary. Starting this week I will also add ORP and CF metrics, the ORP probe is not calibrated and values are to be taken with a grain of salt. Values are average of the day.
