Another week down absolutely no problems stress free week, alrighty then, bye bye now..... okay fine who am I kidding there's no such thing as an easy week in this journal so let's just get into it. Started of the week well enough buds sites forming Dennis is a little behind but thats just Dennis. The problem child of the group was given a flush with nutrients at the start of the week. The black spotting and leaf necrosis has slowed significantly. Looks like just one or two leaves affected. Maybe the microbes and removal or calmag are starting to balance things out. Im still not 100% on what the cause is... if its ph, lockout, calmag, phosphorus def, problems with my water or something else. Maybe Dennis just likes to watch me stress out and run 3000 google searches on what it could be.. honestly thats probably it. Mid week I got caught sleeping on the job and the tent wilted from underwatering, I caught this about 10 minutes before lights out when I returned from work. I've never mixed a batch of feed so quickly, it was like what I'd imagine being a chef for Gordon Ramsey feels like. I usually ph to 5.9-6.1 but I've been watching some bill ward vids on youtube who suggests 5.7 so we gave it a try. No time to make the ol' calmag free batch for Dennis, just eat your calmag and go the f to sleep. Now this morning 10 minutes before I typed this I've found black necrosis spots on over a dozen leaves. Even some on on another plants. One plant had some nitrogen def showing in the lower leaves even with the feed being yesterday which is baffling. Its gotta be the ph. The promix hp could have drifted to a nono spot in ph im not sure. Open to advice and suggestions...anything.. I need to right the ship and fast. The only other thing it could be is the lack of a male presence has left then tent and the females are depressed. I've added an important male figure back into the tent in hopes of raising overall morale. Hope it works

So this week i harvested the orangesherbert so sticky and stinks of orange, 50grams dry of 🔥 bud. Curing in a big jar at 21 degrees and humidity of 60% dark cool cupboard. Watermelon zkitles is bouncing back, the runts is doing amazing with the lst and leaf tucking. I had to kill the purplelemonade due to it herming on me I dont have space for that so I'm going to run a ethos genetics seed in its place.

Was geht growmies, Hab diese Woche einmal für zwei Tage vergessen zu gießen, und das haben mir die Pflanzen ziemlich übel genommen. Zum Glück haben sie sich nach zwei weiteren Tagen wieder erholt, paar Blätter sind gelb geworden, hab diese größtenteils entfernt. Die Buds sind zudem viel zu schwer für die Stängel, sodass ich sie an paar Stellen fixieren musste. Es geht grade ziemlich rapide voran, werde ab nächster Woche auch schon anfangen mit dem Flush und die lichtintensität langsam runterdrehen. Wünsche euch ein schönes Wochenende und stay high 🍀😊

So are you guys okay? You know so much to me! My situation as a grower is growing and many possibilities are opening up for me for new fantastic projects, to which the first thing for me is the mega-passion that I have for these girls, who at the same time give me fun, well-being, social life, introspection, meditation, high if necessary, I would really do everything for her if I lived in a country where this is legal, but unfortunately I can't and you don't know how much I envy people in America who can freely grow and show their results on Instagram and many other social networks that I hate but in So if people follow you you can even survive this, this can't be done in Italy, I can only live on the sidelines and I'll be happy in my only experience of myself producing the best possible weed on the planet where I am! Apart from this rant, I wanted to say that the new grow box is the intelligent ventilation system that regulates the air in relation to the humidity and temperature in the box, I must say that for me it is a huge leap in quality that I am sure will also be reflected on my girls! Thanks for everything Mars Hydro you are my source of pride and happiness for trusting me that I can have the same professional home tools as anyone else on this planet who wants good and natural weeda! Mars hydro = excellent quality in everything! For now, the light is set to 50 x one hundred, we'll see later how the girls develop and we'll make some adjustments, thanks at the GHE for breeding this strain! Im hope this girl Will be a very good big Babe! Thanks for al! I appriciate all of yuor likes GD 4Life!🤣😝😼😉😺💖🧑‍🌾🌱🌿🌲💨

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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 💚

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 They're looking a bit better than last week. Really loving being in the tent, there's no comparisson to the conditions they had in the balcony. Roots are starting to show through the cups so next week i'll be transplanting them into their final 8L fabric pots and move them outside for good. I'm doubtful on whether transplanting next week or not because of the climate, but as they're autos.. I can't wait any longer. Whatever will be shall be. One of them got a bit of a mutation.. the one I was rooting for the most! 😪 You can notice in the pictures.. there's a node with three leaves. It seems as if she tried to top herself. Quite curious. The girl that's been in the tent since day one has great color and leaves but is much smaller in height than the others. Stay tuned to see how these ladies progress. Have a good day! One love!

Start of week 7. I think I will just feed water this week. I have lots of nutes still in the soil and leaves. They wont get much water this week maybe 1 or 2 flushes. Next week I wanted to experiment with light deprivation, as well as crank my A/C as high as possible. May even split one of the stems to see if it makes a difference. 12/12/18 Everything looking good. No problems, the ladies as super frosty and the smell is intense. Impatience is starting to kick it. So tempted to take a tester bud. But that's a waste.

Finally a sunny day in the midst of our insanely wet spring. Rain, rain and more rain, and rain in the forecast. The Japanese beetles have shown up, so I’ve made giant canna-condoms to keep the girls safe from the insatiable munchers. The girls look good, one is much smaller than the other, I call her Minnie.
