All changed - all tents basically wrapped into one - the green leopard complete tent. It’s been great to get them in , the power , the light- check out the original sea of beam in the flesh. I’m looking for a commercial grow operation to try and document a commercialized version of the sea of beam - please get in touch [email protected] For the shop to get your lights / tent and the rest visit thegreenleopard.com Sea of beam is patent pending and is an absolute game changer for yield , structure , lack of variation between top and bottom bud - just a monster PAR sandwich and more. I’ve priced my products right to say hi and give you the best - for growers by growers 🙏🏼

looking lush green buds are stacking today sorted out the slight nitrogen problem how we looking for a first timer growmies and any tips at the start of week 4 flower day 22 day 57 from seed !

Es sind noch ein paar cm dazu gekommen und ich bin mit der Blütenentwicklung recht zufrieden. Der Bereich um die Blüten ist wundervoll bepudert. Das Wetter bleibt wechselhaft bis schlecht! Das Wetter bessert sich, leider habe ich einen massiven Befall von Trauermücken, Nematoden sind bestellt.

Week 6, quick root flash. All going very well the nutrients are at 2.5ml/l now, vita race weekly, bacillus mix. Plant started to flower properly and the stretch is on its way. Water at ph 6-6.5. I always try to keep the bottom clean so I do multiple clean ups of lower leaves and braches every week. Also doing this focuses the energy of the plant to the top and she doesn't waste time making popcorn buds.

01/27/2021 Flowering going well Flowering #2,#3,#6 #6 is a week ahead of#2,#3 will put others in on week 4 for a staggered harvesting 01/30/2022 watered with fungal tea and some aloe mixed in for amino acids and other goodness. Well see how she progresses in 4 days Also working on some banana peel tea to give a boost of potassium if I do next week it should be available for week 6-7. Ps. Fuzzy Mellon (bag seed male) I will pollinate one lucky branch on #6 as she is my favorite. But number 3(tall and lanky one) will get pollination of one branch as well. I can't wait to see how they recombine with fuzzy melon smell mixed with burnt rubber and model glue and pine. #2 no pollination (smaller one) #5 (bonsai) and #8 are males. So 3 female out of 8 seeds. Going to make some feminized seeds next time,so I'll have plenty of female's for a staggard harvest.

I transferred it to a half-gallon pot and I mixed the organic fertilizer with the soil.

I've uploaded a quick video for you guys showing how the ladies are looking at the end of Week 4 of Flower 👍🏾 Going Great! Could be going alot better to be honest but still doing really good.

Está semana regamos ligeramente con agua dos días y el sábado 12 empezamos a hacer el té para echarselo lunes de madrugada

This is the best strain I've grown so far. Taking in consideration the growing process, buds quality & effects. This plant was my 4th attempt to find a specific taste I'm searching since I started to grow, in 2020. My "Purple Quest". Once again, it's not the right one 😔 But it's still the best plant I've grown so far. 10 Weeks of veg. Topping, main-lining (nebula's method), defoliation, LST. Everything went well :) But I may try to have a shorter veg period with my next grow. Arround 6-7 week. 8 weeks of flowering. Matching perfectly RQS estimations. Mention : Made 3.4g of Bubble Hash out of the trim of two plants (leaves only).

❄️ ANIMAL MINTS — Legends of the Frozen North Folder 9 — Germination Report (12/12 Schedule) 8×8 Last 2025 Run ⸻ 1. Prologue to the Frozen North Animal Mints enters the grow room like a creature forged in ice — a strain whose legend, power, and resilience echo the spirit of the Frozen North. Under the strict 12/12 light regime of this run, the three seedlings selected for this journey stand as the first cubs of a polar lineage, preparing to carve their story into this frozen saga. A fourth, more mature plant waits beyond the blizzard, hidden from the narrative for now — the Elder of the North — to be revealed later as the story unfolds. ⸻ 2. Seeds of the North — Selection & Identity • Total Seeds Germinated: Several • Selected for the Saga: Three seedlings • The Hidden Elder: One pre-veg plant (≈3 weeks), to appear in Week 1 Veg Every seed showed the strength expected from a creature adapted to cold survival — fast, uniform, and determined. ⸻ 3. Conditions of the Northern Realm To maintain continuity across the 8×8 project, Animal Mints begins its legend under the same strict environmental code: • Light Schedule: 12/12 from Day 0 • Medium: Identical to previous folders for comparative integrity • Humidity: Naturally high in early stages, forming “frost” (condensation) on leaves • Temperature: Stable warmth against the metaphorical cold These conditions create the perfect environment to introduce the Frozen North theme: a harsh cycle demanding strength, discipline, and adaptability. ⸻ 4. Emergence of the Young Bears — Germination Performance The three chosen seedlings pushed through the soil like small white bears rising from beneath snow: • Strong taproots with vigorous direction • Clean, symmetrical cotyledons • Confident posture • No deformities • Unified emergence time The Animal Mints clan begins with perfect early synchronization. ⸻ 5. The Frost Effect — Notes on Condensation & Macro Shots Macro photography captured “glacier droplets” on the tiny leaf surfaces, magnified to look like heavy ice beads. In reality: • The droplets are tiny • Macro magnification exaggerates size • It is natural humidity and leaf transpiration • No stress is present • No pathogens, burn, or imbalance Just the beauty of frost on young life, true to the Frozen North aesthetic. ⸻ 6. Behavior Under the Polar Cycle (12/12) Even from Day 0, the seedlings quickly adapted to the shortened daylight cycle — similar to life in the far north: • Upright, resilient posture • Zero uncontrolled stretch • Steady leaf development • A rhythm of growth shaped by long “nights” These observations contribute to the scientific and mythological study of how a strain can thrive under near-Arctic light conditions. ⸻ 7. The Elder of the North (To Be Introduced Later) For now, the older pre-veg plant remains behind the veil — a creature already forged through harsher early conditions. She will emerge later in: 📌 Week 1 VEG — “Arrival of the Elder” At that moment, her presence will expand the legend: • A seasoned warrior entering the Frozen North • Standing beside the three seedlings • Offering immediate comparison between 12/12-born plants and a more traditional veg-grown specimen This delayed introduction strengthens the narrative arc and enriches the diary’s mythos. ⸻ 8. The Journey Ahead The legend continues with: • Early structural development • Macro photography documentation • Weekly chapter-style reports • The Elder’s arrival • The shaping of the full Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North saga FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 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 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

We've made it to week 3! (10/12/20) I'm very happy with how the girls are going, they have definitely put in a HUGE amount of work over the past 7 days. Plants 3 & 8 are very similar(extremely fat leaves & extra bushy) Plants 1 & 5 are similar (smaller phenos reacting to nutes slightly differently) & Plants 2, 4, 6 & 7 seem to be a cross between the previously mentioned phenos(not too small and not too big/bushy & reacting to nutes fine) Feel free to compare Week 1, 2 & 3 to see the differences. Nutes are staying the same this week, although I will be spacing feedings out a little bit further(18 hours-ish), as well as feeding straight PH'd water once a fortnight. I am contemplating hooking my simple drip-to-waste irrigation system up, although the girls are pretty close to the medium still and the halos sit 5-10cm above the medium, meaning fan leaves would be drooping onto the wet halos, so I'll give it another week and see how they're doing :) Update 11/12/20 - day 22 The girls have beefed up quite a bit over the last 24 hours, I'm really looking forward to seeing a stretch soon :) No feeding today & will water plain ph'd water tomorrow. Update 12/12/20 - day 23 Gave the girls straight ph'd water today with little run off. Veg growth is really starting to boom now, looking forward to seeing where this grow goes! I'm gladly accepting any tips or tricks, as I'm still only a beginner to indoors. Update 13/12/20 - day 24 Girls are looking great today, not much to report. They didn't get a feed or watering today as the medium was still wet after a pure watering yesterday. Update 14/12/20 - day 25 There's been a big increase in growth over the past 24 hours. All the girls besides the 2 smaller phenos look 100% happy, the smaller ones have looked a little weird since day 1(Weird as in colour of the fan leaves look deficient of something, but I'm not sure what. The girls will be getting a full feeding today. There's still no signs of sex but they are feminised seeds. Update 15/12/20 - day 26 Girls are looking happy today. Temps are back to normal after a heat wave in my city(its only going to get hotter from here on out). No feeding/watering today, pots are heavy/wet enough. Started using iphone for photos now, my only lens for my DSLR is useless for most grow related photos. I will upgrade my lens before next grow. I received my new silenced fan today! I couldnt be any happier :) It is a silenced Sigilventus SE-A150J, which I have set-up with a brand new Can-lite carbon filter. I went from a rocket loud eBay fan to a completely silent inline EC fan :D I hope the girls like the silence! Update 16/12/20 - day 27 The girls are continuing to boom! and I'm over the moon about it :D I gave them a full feeding today. I have seen white pistils coming out of calyx's on most of the girls, so i'm hoping they start to flower soon. I'm having weird issues with my humidity, it seems to be fine at 40-50% for 70% of the day, but the remaing 30% of the day it goes up to 60-65%. Temps stay the same in the 5x5 tent, I have ducted air-con in the house which is on most of the day. Thanks for viewing! :)

Venga familia, cosecha de estas Thunder Banana de Seedstockers, que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo. No veas que pinta que tienen estas plantas. Las flores aparte se ven bien resinosas, prietas, aparte son aromáticas huelen bien fuerte. En general es una genética con la que disfruté bastante cultivarla, la genética es perfecta para cultivos de floración corta con rangos entre los 20/25 grados en interior, es de dificultad media cultivarla y bien resistente, es excelente para cultivadores algo experimentados y con algo de conocimientos. Hasta aquí es todo, espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

Purple Lemonade from fast buds comming in nice on week 1 of veg she is missing one of her first leaves so looks a little funny but growing more every day under this fold 6 from medic grow

Only fed the bigger plant #2 . The first is getting cloudy just waiting for her to go alil further . Will update more this week but their getting closer.

- Streching is ended. - Just like last week, humidity has been a very big problem in Berlin due to multiple storms and heat waves this week as it spiked between 50-85 % outside whole week. - VPD fluctuated this week between 1,0 and 1.65 kPa , averaging at 1,29 kPa. Better than last week because of the crazy heat wave covering huge humidity. - Tent temperature fluctuated around 24 at night and 27-28 Celsius at day time, averaging at 25.2. A lot higher than last week even though I have increased the exhaust fan speed but that’s all my exhaust fan can handle. - Humidity fluctuated crazy between 50-85% this week, averaging at 59.8. Not much I can do other than trusting the non-stop ventilation in the tent. - This week, I kept giving increased Ph (6.8) of water first half of the week as the medium Ph is still cruising under 6. But then I switched to 6.5 on the 2nd half of the week. - Much more frosting can be observed on Chemical Bride. - White pistils are slowly turning orange on both plants and the flowers are gaining mass. - Both have a similar pleasent gummy smell. - I believe that Kings Kush is not as capable as Chemical Bride in terms of heat and humidity resistance. My observation is that Chemical Bride is a week ahead already. But let’s see!! - This week, I will add a dehumidifier to the setup.

Tricomi tricomi tricomi ovunque!!!!

So I finished my slow transition to flower yesterday, I increased “night” by 20 min everyday over 21 days to get from 18/6 to 11/13. She’s def stretching but less then would be expected with this strain if it was an abrupt switch. Enjoy and give me a like!!

Day 15 Flower (Day 57) The first day of week 3 of flower. I switched the light recipe in my main tent from the Flower Induction program to the Flower program now when the right girl is in flower. I also gave her 3 liters of pH 6.1 water. The left girl didn't need any water though. That was all today. Day 16 Flower (Day 58) All I did today was to give each girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. Day 17 Flower (Day 59) I gave the right girl 3 liters of pH 5.9 water today. It's a bit low maybe (added too much pH down and was too lazy to fix it) but should be alright. My pH is different each watering anyway, as I aim to optimize nutrient uptake by covering a broader pH range. The left girl didn't need any today as she drinks a lot less due to being smaller. That being said, she is now hitting the light :/ It was never my intention to grow her in such a confined space, but here we are. She should have been trained differently and vegged shorter to grow correctly in such a small space. I have ordered a new, taller tent which will arrive next week. Until then, she'll be snug, and I don't think I can take any canopy pics for a few days. I started brewing some compost tea following the same recipe as previously (worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal, and molasses), but I upped the castings, the neem, and the kelp. Long overdue as it was over two weeks since last time. I will feed this tea (unfiltered) tomorrow after 24 hrs of brewing. Day 18 Flower (Day 60) Today I gave each girl 3 liters of pH 6.3 compost tea that brewed for 26 hours. I also added a few tablespoons worth of alfalfa seeds that I ran through a blender first to beat up into a powder. I didn't filter the tea, so all ingredients ended up as a top dressing that will get watered in as time goes. The small tent is packed, and the girl is pressing up against the light. It got to hold out until next week, so it is what it is. It is getting a bit cramped in the main tent as well, so I moved up the lights as far as I could without going full McGyver. It's the first time I grow this strain, but she sure is a stretcher. The weather has gotten warm here (finally!), but of course, now my tent is getting even hotter. I'm trying to combat it to some extent by running the extractor fan more. That will get the temp down a bit, but unfortunately, it will also cause the humidity to drop. I put in my small humidifier to help with that, so the VPD is still in a reasonable range. Day 19 Flower (Day 61) I defoliated the right girl today by removing some leaves and branches low down where the lights don't reach. The left girl must also be done, but I'll work on her when she is between tents next week. I also gave the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water. That was it for today. Day 20 Flower (Day 62) All I did today was to water each girl with 3 liters of pH 6.7 water. I hope that my new tent arrives sooner rather than later since the left girl is pushing up so much against the light that the top flowers are starting to get burnt. Wonderful... :( I've turned down the light as low as it goes (15%), that's pretty much all I can do except turning off the light completely. Day 21 Flower (Day 63) The last day of the third week of flower and things are moving along nicely except for the crowded tent, but hopefully, the new tent will solve that in a day or two. The left girl is 85 cm tall (17 cm increase in a week), and the right girl is 117 cm tall (also a 17 cm increase in a week). There wasn't much to do today. I gave the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.5 water and snapped a few pics. That's all.
