Loving the look and smell of this plant.. She is quite compact and is loaded with Frosty buds. I am still feeding her nearly every watering as these plants are demanding

All smooth sailing this week, she got some lovely rain, Temps are dropping each weak, but quite bushy, also I have notice her smell coming through, sweet citrus

So since I had the mold and bud rot problems I had to divide my schedule of harvest and divide the product as well. - Healthy buds are ones belonging to branches where there are no signs of rot/mold. -Mid-healthy buds are untouched by disease but still belonging to a branch where there was some disease. -Last category are the salvaged ones, where I cut them from bigger buds that had disease or they were in some part affected. These 3 categories each have their own drying space and where harvested in this order to prevent spreading of spores and stuff. For the salvaged buds every time I removed a part with disease I cleaned the scissors with alcohol. I only removed the sun-leaves + penguin leaves and will be doing a dry trim for the sugar leaves later on.

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Hermi!!!! Our beautiful mystery plant is sporting pollen sacks.. she just went on a field trip.. we're closing this diary out.. we'll let her finish naturally outside and salvage what we can for edibles and bubble hash... a very depressing outcome to a lot of work and training... we don't know if this was genetic or stress induced and have about 3 medium sized plants cloned from her in veg atm.. we're hesitant to flower any of them, instead we're taking all new clones from our GDP thats in 3rd week of flower, hoping for a fast re-veg... thanks for reading..be sure to inspect your plants diligently friends..happy growing

Second week of flowering and they are are already getting fatter and stacking nicely. Sorry for the poor pic and video quality.

Flipped to flower 26/2. have a lot of the lower sites developing nicely. let's hope flowering goes well.

Let’s go day 43!!!! Week went real well , girls started preflower so sometime this week I will be switching up the nutrients for flowering! We are stable and looking super healthy! Can’t wait to see what these ladies do this week! Hope you all enjoy !

🌸 Week 7 Flower – Crystals, Aromas & Monster Buds Welcome, friends, to the final pre-harvest chapter for our Mango Kush sisters. Week 7 Flower is where everything comes together: weight, density, aroma, and frost. And let me tell you — these girls are absolute monsters. ⸻ 🌱 The State of the Sisters • Pheno #1 – The trailblazer. Her colas are enormous, dense, and sparkling like snowy peaks under the lights. The macro shots reveal a glittering layer of trichomes, covering buds, sugar leaves, and even little fan leaves near the canopy. She’s showing phenomenal resin production, and her pistils are thick and curling. • Pheno #2 – The younger sister, but catching up fast. Her buds are dense and sticky, the frost is appearing more heavily, and every macro shot reveals the same dazzling crystal coverage. She’s slightly behind Pheno #1 in maturity, but don’t be fooled — she’s a true powerhouse in her own right. The smell in the room is so strong that if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be calling the fire department thinking someone baked 100 mango pies at once! 😅 I mean the frost on these buds? Looks like Mother Nature had a snow day in the grow tent — pure white crystals everywhere, like the plants are wearing winter coats in July! ❄️ ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Watch – Macro Details Week 7 is all about trichomes. Here’s what we’re seeing and monitoring: • Clear trichomes: Still present, mainly on the lower bud sites, indicating some time left before peak potency. • Cloudy/milky trichomes: The majority of bud surfaces are now showing full milkiness, a sign of peak THC potential. • Amber trichomes: Small percentages on the tips of pistils — this is the first sign of cannabinol conversion, giving the slightly more sedative effect. 🌱 Educational takeaway: Trichome inspection is the golden key to deciding harvest timing. Macro photography helps us see nuances invisible to the naked eye. We’re aiming for a balance: mostly milky with a touch of amber for that perfect Mango Kush high. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition At this stage, feeding is minimal but precise — we don’t want to push excess nutrients, only support the plant as it finalizes resin and bud density: • Just water lol the rest they can find in soil and else were Educational takeaway: Week 7 feeding is about support, not growth. The girls have all the energy stored; now we just help them transform it into resin, aroma, and density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temps: 28–30°C, slightly warmer in the canopy under heavy buds. • Humidity: 50–55% — perfect for trichome development. • CO₂: 620–650 ppm, steady, helping photosynthesis and sugar production. Observation: Trichome production loves a slightly drier mid-to-late flower environment. Too much humidity can reduce resin and promote mold on dense buds. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The lighting orchestra is still performing beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One → penetrating the canopy • ThinkGrow ICL-300s → mid-canopy perfection • Future of Grow Black Series 600W → full-spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro → evening out footprint Result: every bud site is kissed by light, maximizing sugar leaves and resin density. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – Seed to Here For anyone joining now, here’s the full journey of our Mango Kush sisters: 1. Seed germination: Smooth, fast, with Aptus Start Booster. 2. Vegetative stage: Strong branching, two phenos selected, transplanted into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix. 3. Early Flower (Weeks 1–3): Pistils forming, Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded, TrolMaster ecosystem established. 4. Mid Flower (Weeks 4–6): Bulking, simplified nutrition, aroma starting, trichomes appearing, All-in-One Liquid and CalMag adjustments. 5. Week 7: Buds heavy, frost everywhere, aroma exploding, trichomes mostly milky with hints of amber — the final week before harvest. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect ✅ Expect: • Buds heavy and dense, needing support • Aroma extremely potent, filling the tent • Trichomes mostly milky, some amber • Sugar leaves sparkling with frost ❌ Don’t expect yet: • Complete amber conversion (full sedative effect) • Final cured aroma or flavor (only post-harvest) Educational takeaway: Week 7 is the climax of flower maturation. Now is the time to inspect, support, and admire — patience will yield the perfect harvest. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries community: thank you for joining this journey from seed to near-harvest. The sisters have taught us patience, observation, and joy in every stage. To the gear: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow, Lumatek, Future Of Grow with the Black Series — thank you for letting the plants reach their full potential. 💚 Grower’s Reflection: These girls are monsters, monsters of beauty, resin, and aroma. Every macro shot shows why we love this process. And yes… if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be evacuating the neighborhood from sheer Mango Kush smell! 😅 Frosty, dense, magical — week 7 Flower is everything I hoped for. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

For the purpose of GrowDiaries, this Week 7 Flower report combines both sisters to provide a full picture of the tent and the ongoing bloom. While Mango Kush #1 is slightly ahead, and #2 a bit behind, this report reflects both in their mid-to-late flowering stage. Why combine them now? GrowDiaries updates are sometimes tricky, and combining the sisters allows us to share their progress together, making it easier for readers to follow the story and observe the similarities and differences. 🌱 Rest assured: When harvest comes, we’ll present a complete follow-up report covering harvest, dry, trim, cure, and smoke review — highlighting each sister’s unique traits and final results. Honesty is part of the journey, and transparency helps everyone learn and apprecilove the full picture. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

Excelente resultado el que hemos obtenido con estas cepas de kannabia, pero esta se lleva la palma.. para mi, es la favorita del cultivo. Ha sido la más fácil de cultivar, la que mejor se adapto en el espacio de cultivo.. bastante productiva y con una resina brutal. Sabores cítrico y mango muy acentuado.. es una pasada fumar esta cepa. Con esto damos por terminado el cultivo con kannabia.. disculpad la tardanza en publicar... tarde o temprano siemore cumplimos! Hasta pronto amigos! Un saludo growers 💚👨‍🌾🏽

Week 9: So it feels like this could actually be week 10 as I've been flushing this one early girl....She's a beauty and I'm flawless finish flushing. Gonna go with a few more doses b4 we harvest but she's ready. My other I've been Overdriving with Nirvana, Mike's OG, Bud Candy and Bud Factor X. Going into week 9 with strong finish on these other girls. The Buds are hand ✋️ sized and I got like 8 huge branches on each plant so already thinking about what my harvest is gonna be like when done. Also thinking alot about curing and my cure set-up. So basically gonna have buds curing all through the winter. The next grow should be done by Christmas so 2024 Bud will cure through election season and I'll be ready... Day? What's a day?: So @ this point my girls are women now and I'm already on to tha next!!! Actually maybe one more over drive session for a few but just letting these ladies kindo of just hang out by the pool. Taking lights down last hour of the grow to spray with a Grease, Golden Goddess mix so when light go to 6 they can feed through the leaves. Same thing in the morning. Spray and let them go on that dimmer light for a few then back to bright. I'm like the towel boy @ a pool of lovely ladies all asking me to spray oil on their backs. I'm getting huge buds and just kind of overwhelmed by all the work. There is alot of "love/hate/labor" in growing "Top Shelf" and I'm to the point in my grow where I'm think about of all things, "More nutrients" and where I can get the best bang for my buck. Went through my B2 like huh but only a 250ml bottle. The Grease gone. I thinking that or Canna. I few other nutrients running low but not low enough to stop this next grow, The Christmas Grow. Fast Flower, not Auto but Fast Flower. Growing 420 FB's line-up!!! That's like 6 strains so excited about that. Other than that spending thinking about the clean up of my tent and the floor spacing for the next grow. Woke up and started cutting of one of my ladies. Took three huge bud limbs, cut and trimmed b4 putting them in a paper bag to dry. My fingers smell like I've been "finger banging" the ladies. Almost out of weed and closing down the whole re-up operation. It's been fun dealers but bout ta give up my spot! Sunday..middle week 9...so one of my girls was officially retired 2day. Cut her and am goinging paper bag dry. Flushed her for a week and soil was almost dry enough but could of let her sit @ least til end of week grow schedule but said fuck it My other girls had their last or next to last feeding depending on how this particular feed goes. I did a couple of different things regarding nutrients. I dosed them well in honor of the one missing. Water and fed with care making sure that this last or next to last Overdrive shot gets me extra extra large buds. Almost start of week 10: Bout ready to flush these girls and get set up for the next grow. Watching a particular plant though that is not an A/F and pretty fuck'n amazed by it's size. 4 of these would fill my tent easily but zap my nutrients so waiting to see how these girls smoke b4 deciding what direction my next grow will go. Got one plant drying though and should be ready for the jars in another 8 or nine days. They are very sticky and big so excited about the next few weeks. This whole curing thing is gonna be fun and looking to try some stuff....fruit peels in a jar and flavorful terpene's Up early to get this grow flushed and finished. Since it's the start of Week 10 going into FDC mode on all these girls and get em out of this tent and into dry mode. Really proud of my first grow and hoping to harvest and cure goes smoothly. Some of my nutrient are low but looking @ the girls seems like they took the feedings very Stargate 2023: Somewhere in between flush and dry but picked up some cardboard boxes along with 5 cases of water. 2 cases maybe to finish flush and 3 to start the Xmas grow. I got my first girl in paper bags but am switching to hang drying. Started flushing all but one. Gave her some OD but will join the rest in flush in a few more days.(needs more density). Think I'm going 3 maybe 4 more flush feedings but after that gonna give em another week b4 the deed. Experimenting with flushing b4 the cut to see how far a can take these!! What ever week what ever day: So my first girl down and drying.... I mean it looked like she was moving faster than the rest so I flushed a week and chopped. This seems rushed and it is just a bit. So by having one plant ahead of the rest F.D.C. on this gives me an opportunity to figure out how I'm gonna fdc the others. So once my bud dries will cure for about a week and test. Other girls will be still flushing. I used alot of nutrients in this 1st grow and want to make sure my buds don't taste like shit and smoke smoothly. Been spraying my girls an hour b4 lights on with Golden Godess. Ran out of Grease a week ago but still confident my plants are loving the GG. So thinking about the next grow and how to deal with this photo...this mf is gonna be a doozy so considering giving it to a fellow grower I talk with sometimes. Gonna need the space and a light cycle in unisoness with my fresh girls in this Xmas grow. A big bitch in the corner bullying my babies and stealing they light aint happening. She might have to go outdoors...(Johnny Lee Hookerish) Not really worried though cause if I put her on the stroll, she'll get chose no doubt. Next grow in less than 2 weeks so be on the look-out for a new diary. This grow is giving me so much information and style. I'm a writer and writing/documenting this grow is a form of therapy. My career is an algorithm; I'm pretty good @ my job; I genuinely love all with the exceptions of a few. What was written is coming to pass. The earth will be aight, the people on it...there was a song made back in tha day called "Self Destruction" we headed that way So mixed that song with a few Burning Spear songs followed by some E.L.T G.B.A and here we are!!!!! So I've been drying in paper bags one plant and setting up for cure. The others are in flush so have have starting cutting leave. Got all my plants nice and manicured during the flush so that i can go straight to dry but found a few stems that actually dried from the last defoliation and found a couple of branches I had cut due to being small. I crumbled a bit and put it in my blunt.😁 with some D weed that pretty good. Yeah it smokes really good and I can notice and taste the flavor in that portion smoked.....Can't wait to cure cause if i can smoke on this one plant while curing these others propper. Say 20-30 days I think my T's are gonna shine but definitely noticing the nutrient quality difference in the smoke. Awgh man I think I this is gonna change everything!!!

***** Week 10 growth - February 6 to 12, 2021 - Week 1 Flower ***** Here we go.......on to flower now. Last week was transition week and bud sites are setting on the girls now. Lights flipped a week ago to 12/12.......typical flower. Stretch is starting this week now. Last week was marginal height growth. Nutrients switched over to flower schedule and following week 1 again this week. Next week will move up the ppm more and start on bud enhancers. More microbes and sweetener this week. Silica ppm also increasing now as not looking to bend branches much more now. Have a hole in the canopy that I am just going to need to live with. GSCHB and MM2 did not growth as expected. They are not reaching up as tall as the others and stretch is slow. Not looking like they will catch up in next couple of days☹️☹️☹️ Little more detail....... Feb 6/21 - Day 1 - been drying for 2 days now so water day with some supplements - 3L each girl with CalMag @ 2ml, AN B52 @ 1.5ml (using up an old bottle to finish), Enzymes @ 1ml - 575ppm and 5.9pH - Need to start increasing silica. Using up some B52 which has some silica in it.......and other vitamins so its all good😀 Feb 7/21 - Day 2 - Leaves up today and praying nicely. - CL1 is going to sleep earlier than the other girls and is droopy early in the evening.......root issues or too much light?? - CL2 is looking very good. Leaves are cupping nicely and buds forming nicely. - dry out day - stretch is going now and the girls are growing hard Feb 8/21 - Day 3 - Feed day again, going to stay with week 1 flower nutrients, same as last week. - IPP Grow @ 1ml, Micro @ 2ml, Bloom @ 2ml, Black Storm @ 3ml, Sea Storm @ 5ml, B+ @ 0.5ml, Red Sun @ 0.5gr, Carbs @ 1ml, Natures Candy @ 1ml, Piranha @ 1ml, Microbes @ 2ml. - 4L for each girl.......yeah, took a little longer to mix up this feed😀 - 1350ppm and 5.9pH - no run off from the girls today......little light on the water, they should have had 5L each. - last feed with bud starter, Red Sun, next will be Bud Fusion for bud booster next week. Feb 9/21 - Day 4 - no run off yesterday so adding more water today......plain tap water.....no additives - 5L for each girl. 225ppm and 6.0pH - good run off today. - CL2 is really looking good.......beautiful leaf colour and nice amount of stretch right now. Feb 10/21 - Day 5 - Nothing today......watered two days in a row - ready for more silica!! Branches need to firm up. Feb 11/21 - Day 6 - Recharge arrived today!!!!!! Time for more microbes and sweetener😀💪 - purple stripes on main stems so adding more magnesium through Epsom salts - 4L mixture for the girls with Epsom Salts @ 0.5Tbsp, Silica @ 1.5ml, IPP Carbs @ 1ml, Recharge @ 1 tsp - 1,000ppm and 5.9pH - different microbes now and excited! Feb 12/21 - Day 7 - Nothing again today.......give them watering tomorrow morning. - Wondering if their leaves are a little dark........consider bring down ppm next week.......it was hard this week at 1300ppm........water is 250 on its own so around 1100ppm nutes added. Looking good ETS......different phenos coming out a little different but it’s week 1 flower😃

The plant got very little care this week as I was away for work. I installed a automated drip system 2 wewks prior and it had been working a treat...until I leave that is as I suspect after the first one or two scheduled waters the timer flipped out and reset itself🤬 I have no idea why. Eitherway the plant got no water at all for 4 days., about 1.1 litres to be precise, well under 1 days requirement . As I have a remote cam setup I could see what was going on, I could see the plant suffering from underwatering but I could do nothing about it. And as this like all my grows are stealth grows because of the kids and wife I couldn't exactly have mates drop by to do🤣 Super painful it was to watch anyhow, captured for my suffering in the video. All ended well after a feed and everything is back on track. Maybe the plant thrived from the brief period of underwatering as the growth was crazy immediately after. As far as temps were concerned this week, there were 2 hot days where internal tent temperatures would've reached 30+ and cold nights just over zero. Honestly I've given up monitoring as there's nothing I can do about the heat when growing in a tin garden shed and when cold the bar heaters easily increase the temp by close to 15c from what it is outside. Good news is the cold days out numbered the warm and helped alot especially with the lack of watering. Thank you gunja gods 🙏 A beast this thing has become! Way bigger than I hoped for, way bigger than I need but I'll accept it's offerings eitherway when the time is right.

They are growing quite fast and sexing will start in a week

Hallo zusammen 🤙.

I did not top this girl, yet. Her top lowers started catching up to the top so I didn’t want to stop her yet lol. But all in all she’s looking healthy.

Hey everyone 😃. Today is the penultimate week before the harvest . It has continued to develop beautifully and is getting bigger and bigger 😃. She only gets Ec adapted water so that she can use up her last reserves of nutrients.
