Well kind of a shitty week. The weather has been garbage, it snowed twice... yeah snowed. There is not a whole lot of growth to report on due to the weather. The Grand Daddy Purple has a lot of space between it's nodes this week, to what I can only attribute to the poor lighting with it being over casted, cold and snowing all week. The other 2 photo's are doing just as well as you can see, again not a whole lot of growth after the topping, but I'm assuming the environment for them has not been as favorable as needed, so they are just focusing all their energy on not dying. Which I'm totally cool with lol. The mephisto's are growing well, I'm still training them around the pot trying to get more tops out of them. The ChemDawg is doing significantly better than the Sweet N Sour, I haven't had to do hardly any watering this week as the soil is still damp, temps are cold and humidity is high. I did water and feed them today though as we are expecting temps and weather to reach mid 70 s this week. The Girl Scout Cookies is still in her seedling phase, not sure why this strain is giving me so much trouble, but she's not dead, and first true leaves are just starting to poke out, I've got her in the indoor tent with my Auto grow soaking up some light and hoping that gets her hardy enough to bring her outdoors.

🌸 Week 3 Flower – The Jungle Takes Over The girls are now towering at 1.20 m, turning our tent into a proper green jungle. Both phenotypes are thriving with thick stalks, lush foliage, and a dense network of branches promising a spectacular flower set. This week was all about control and balance. ✂️ Defoliation & Growth Management Although these plants have been allowed to grow naturally so far, their explosive stretch meant I had to step in. I performed a strategic defoliation, not because the plants were weak, but to: • Improve airflow through the canopy. • Ensure light reaches lower bud sites. • Slow vertical growth and help prevent them from outgrowing the tent. Even with a high ceiling, there’s still a risk of running out of headroom during the last stretch. Defoliating at this stage also redirects energy to bud formation instead of excessive leaf production. Note: During this process, a few branches were accidentally broken while moving them out for photos. I left this in the report and photos as a learning moment, large plants can be tricky to handle. This may be the last out-of-tent photoshoot before harvest. 🌱 Structure & Bud Development • Both phenotypes are highly branched, with bud sites forming all the way down the stems. • First signs of proper bud stacking are visible, with white pistils everywhere. • Plants look symmetrical, vibrant, and full of energy — a promising start to mid-flower. 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Base nutrients: • Aptus Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L occasionally (soil already contains slow-release pellets) Bloom boosters (Plagron): • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L (multi-action bloom stimulator, PK booster, and terpene enhancer) • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L (amino acid-rich biostimulant, improves aroma & resilience) • Power Buds – 1 ml/L (early flowering booster to promote faster bud set) This combined recipe ensures the plants receive balanced macro and micronutrients while enhancing flower development, resin production, and terpene expression. pH & EC: • Feed solution pH: ~6.0–6.1 • Feed EC: ~1.04 mS/cm (soil EC still at ~2.96 mS/cm, so feed is moderated) 🌡️ Environment • Soil temperature: 24–24.7°C • Air temperature: 29°C • Humidity: 67% • VPD: 1.37 kPa Conditions are slightly warm, but the plants are coping well. ⸻ 📌 Summary Week 3 of flower has been a turning point, from a lush veg canopy to a budding powerhouse. Strategic defoliation will help manage height and airflow, while the combined Aptus + Plagron feeding strategy aims to maximize flower density, aroma, and overall plant health. The structure is impressive, with a sea of potential bud sites that promise a heavy, aromatic harvest. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Big week! Put the net up and really have been defoliating and training to bush her out! So far she responds amazingly well to the training, growing inches a day curving back towards the light! :) She’s really up taking water now, 2 gallons a feed with barely any runoff now, and she’s nearly dry by the end of day 2, so she’s thirsty! Very excited to even the canopy out and switch the lights :) a couple weeks left! I took 10 cuttings this week as well to try my hand at cloning, so far they are doing alright, at the time of posting they are 5 days cut. Strain is supposed to be ~65 day flower, so half done!

I consider this the last week of veg, some might call it the first week of flower. But she looks great what ever you want to call it. I continue to be impressed with Seedsman strains. I'll be growing more from Seedsman in the future! 👍

Repoted them into 5 gallon smart pots and toped them . Im gona lst them now for 10 days or so and flip to flower . What are ur thoughts guys ?

Day 61 - 12/29 Returned from 2 days out of town and girls (LSD + 2 Cali Snow) are doing well. No grow lights when I left so I pointed the open tent towards a window so it got some light but not a lot. Noticeable bug growth from the end of last week since the couple days away from her gave me some fresh eyes 😂 The plants have spent most of the day under the grow lights again and once they drink enough, they'll be getting another PH Perfect feeding later in the week. The deep purple of the buds is amazing and the growing deep indica/varnish/kushy bitterness smell coming off it will probably taste so nice when it's all said and done. Will have to break out the good camera in a week or so when they get fatter so I can get that colour better than the phone shots I've been using so far #SamsungNote9 --- Thanks for stopping by, throw a like so I can return the favour, and will update through the week 🙌 IG: @GlazedGrow

PKBR #2 is showing a couple leaves of what appears to be cal mag issues + senescence fading. I expect I’ll be able to ride it out til finish. It also happens to be the best smelling pheno in the tent at the moment. Drinking has slowed down as stretching ends. Stopped defoliating in any significance after day 21 of flower to minimize herm risks. So far everyone looks happy and healthy Week 11end = 8/10

Well, I was forced to change the light schedule to 12/12. And the girl doesn't really like it, there are 2 ladies growing in the tent, one of them is a photo (I always thought it was an autoflower), but it turned out to be a photo, and I have to change the time, which the mimosa doesn't like, instead of 18 hours of light, it will only get 12 :( but strange spots appeared on the leaves, but not on all of them and it doesn't expand, the flowering is ending, the flowers are filling up every day :) good luck to everyone :).

Starting flush with plan on harvest on 2/20. Smell is absolutely pungent this week.

She's stacking on that bud now.! Raised her ppm again to around 1010, she doesn't like it! LOL Lowering her back down to around 800-900ppm. She seems to be happy there.

How is it?

Enough with bushes would be title of this week. As 3x I went with LST and defol. The plants are now pretty strong so the lst goes well. Just have to be carefull as it could snap. The perfect method I think would be scrog however. Because they are so bushy and I dont have enough space to tie them down properly. Still cant get clear with how much nutes I need to give. 2 of ny plants just go wild with the leafs . The dots in video happened overnight. Since I cut off the lowest leafes which were half yellow brown dotted. Buds are starting to form pretty good. I suppose 🤷‍♂️🏻😄 as this is the first time I have no idea. Main worrie is that I dont get a bunch of popcorn nugs . So will see. Next week looks pretty much the same. Maybe will figure out something about the net though.

Algunas colas tuvieron que ser amarradas para que no cedan por el peso, comienza el engorde con altas expectativas de esta cepa... Ya veremos si la repetimos

Bitte entschuldigt meine Kamera, mein Handy ist mir paar mal schon runtergefallen. Dadurch hat die Linse gelitten.😅 Mein erster Grow, wünscht mir Glück

Will report back with a smoke report, but this thing smells incredible and budded extremely well. Didn't have much of any issues with pests. Got a BIG 4' plant from only super soil in a 5-gallon fabric pot. Tons of resin. Very impressed with these automatic genetics from Pride of the Lion Seeds... and I'll definitely be growing another one of them in the spring.

Servus Moin! Die Deep Jealousy Auto hat aufgehört zu stretchen und bildet mittlerweile schon richtig die Buds aus. Bin gespannt was das kleine Setup mit der 54W Lampe abwirft.

Planta com otimo crescimento mesmo em floraçao grandes ramos bem volumosos e lindos brotos. Leva rega de 3 em 3 dias com agua desmineralizada
