Woche 8 – Tag 52 | Start in die heiße Phase Die Mädels sind jetzt voll in der Blüte angekommen und der Stretch ist durch. Die Struktur steht, jetzt geht’s nur noch um Budentwicklung und Gewicht. Besonders die Blueberry zeigt wieder, warum sie als Heavy Feeder gilt – hoher Wasserverbrauch und ordentlich Wachstum. Die Budsites entwickeln sich gleichmäßig über das ganze Canopy und die ersten Ansätze werden sichtbar dichter. Insgesamt ein sehr gesunder Eindruck, sattes Grün und stabile Triebe. Ich habe das Gießverhalten leicht angepasst, um mehr Trockenphasen reinzubringen und die Wurzeln stärker arbeiten zu lassen. Gedüngt wird nicht mehr nach – die vorhandene Versorgung reicht vollkommen aus bis zum Ende. Klima bleibt stabil, Umluft wird jetzt nochmal wichtiger, da das Blätterdach deutlich dichter wird. Ab jetzt liegt der Fokus klar auf: * kompakte Buds * saubere Klima- und Gießführung * kein unnötiger Stress Bin gespannt, wie sie in den nächsten 2 Wochen eskalieren 😏🔥 Zum Ende der laufenden Woche nochmal ein paar Bilder. Die buds schwellen langsam richtig an und die harzbildung ist jetzt in voller Fahrt.

If you've followed me for a while you will know how proud I am of my first photo grow. Now this strain was gifted to me and I'm super happy with them. They've been strong, had to move them twice in 24 hours and still seemed happy. Would of really liked to keep a cut of pheno 3 as that looks a good yielder and smells lovely. I've not weighed it as its pointless wet and untrimmed. Anything over 5-6oz I'll be happy 🤷‍♂️🏼🤣 will be back to update in 10 days 🤞🏻✌️🏻

Just some big fat nug towers

the roots obstruct the drainage of the system and the water does not descend into the tank easily and the rockwools and roots are flooded, this causes the increase of ph in the reservoir and in the rockwools. this week I hope to solve the problem, for the moment I use a timer for the water pump (15 on 30 off). update: I solved the problem of the roots on the drain by folding the mat on itself with the whole pack of roots descended into the tub, a little rough but functional. but unfortunately I lost almost a week to flush the girls due to the flooding of the root zone I have to start halving the doses of nutrients again ... ... it was a bad week but maybe I learned something 🍀 water pump restored 24/24h Light lifted up from 50 to 90cm Ppfd 1300 > 1000

Week 7 Coming Down to the home streak

I can’t believe how much these girls have grown in seven days. I have been watering every seven days with recharge 1 tsp / gal for the last three weeks and the last four hours of the evening on watering days I have been soaping them down with insecticidal soap followed up by neem oil. I asked if anyone took their plants outside on another site as mine seemed to love the great weather the past three weekends, and the pest disease issue came up. I hadn't previously thought about that, and looking back, I am glad that I have been using some IPM.

🌿 VEG WEEK 3: Big Bang | Divine Seeds ​🌱 VEGETATIVE PROGRESS ​The Big Bang is moving fast! This week was all about providing more space for the root system to explode. The ladies have officially been transplanted into their 8L pots. The root development in the starter pots was fantastic—thick, white, and healthy roots, which made the transition very smooth. 🚀 ​As you can see, she is already starting to fill out her new space. The fan leaves are getting broader, and the plant is showing that classic healthy Sativa-leaning structure. No transplant shock at all; she just kept on growing. The stems are getting thicker by the day, which will be essential for the heavy LST and Scrog training I’m about to start. 📈 ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING ​Now that they are in larger pots, I’m being careful with the watering to ensure the roots seek out the new medium. The BioBizz regimen continues to work wonders for the overall plant health. ​Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter): ​Root-Juice: 4.0 ml/l ​Acti-Vera: 2.0 ml/l ​Calmag: 0.5 ml/l ​Parameters: ​pH: 6.5 ​Relative Humidity (RH): 70% ​Temperature: 24 °C ​VPD: 0.8 - 1.0 kPa ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE ​Moving day was a success! Keeping the VPD in the 0.8 - 1.0 kPa range during and after the transplant is the secret to avoiding any stress. The Big Bang is responding beautifully to the environment and the organic inputs. Now that she has more room to breathe and grow, I’ll be watching her closely to start the first LST bends. The vigor of this Divine Seeds phenotype is truly impressive! 💥 Stay tuned! 🚀

eek 2 Flower – The Stretch Is On: Sundae Driver Goes Vertical They’re growing. They’re stretching. They’re thriving. Our Sundae Driver girls have officially entered the second week of flower, and they’re acting like it. At just five weeks from seed, they’re now towering at 66 cm, surging upward with that signature hybrid vigor. Photogenic Queens – A Studio Break Before they get too tall to handle, both girls were taken out for a quick, impromptu studio shoot. This may be the last time they leave the tent, because soon, they’ll be too big, too bulky, and too close to the light to move around easily. We’re documenting them now, not just because they’re stunning, but because these moments are fleeting. The stretch phase is short, intense, and marks the final architecture of your grow. ⸻ Room Conditions – Dancing with the Heat The environment this week continues the late-summer warmth, a little hotter than ideal, but still within range: • 🌡️ Day Temp: 30°C • 💧 Humidity: 58% • 🌬️ VPD: ~1.89 kPa Not perfect for flower, we know—ideal VPD for early flower would be around 1.2–1.5 kPa, but the girls are adapting beautifully. This is a reminder that perfect conditions are rare, but resilience and consistency matter more. The plants aren’t complaining, they’re thriving. ⸻ Nutrients – Still Riding with Aptus Top Booster Just like last week, we’re running the Aptus flower base lineup, now dialed into support this explosive growth phase: • Regulator • CalMag Boost • All-in-One Liquid • Top Booster (replacing Start Booster post-flip) The Top Booster continues to support pre-flower and early bud development. We’re not seeing big clusters of pistils yet, but the hormonal shift is clear. Internodal stacking is beginning, and the upper canopy is filling in. ⸻ Visuals & Under-Canopy Light Game One of the photos this week features a special cameo from the Zephyr Zamnesi, adding a bit of mystery and sparkle to the update. We also get a peek under the canopy where your under-canopy lighting setup is really starting to shine. Why does this matter? • It boosts lower bud site development • Improves light penetration during the stretch • Encourages even canopy performance later in flower Great gear is one thing, but it’s how you use it with intention that elevates a grow. ⸻ What’s Happening + What to Expect 🌱 Happening Now: • Rapid vertical stretch • Strong branching on both phenos • No major flower development yet, just the buildup 🔮 Coming Soon: • The first full signs of bud formation • Pistil clusters at node sites • Nutrient shift demands, watch for increased K/P needs in ~1 week • Possibly… the need to raise your lights! ⸻ Let’s Talk About the Week’s Importance Week 2 Flower is all about transformation. The plant is deciding: “Where will I invest my energy?” This week determines: • Final plant shape • Bud site spacing • Canopy structure going into the stacking phase This is your last week to gently train, open up the canopy, manage the airflow, and prep for the heavy flower development coming in Weeks 3–5. If there’s one message for the community this week, it’s this: 🌸 Stretch is not stress, stretch is potential. Embrace it. Document it. Enjoy the moment. ⸻ Conclusion – Moonbound Sundaes From just a few centimeters to over 60 in a blink—these Sundae Drivers are on a mission. Their upward movement mirrors the energy in your grow: focused, fast, and full of joy. Let’s keep the ride smooth, the feed strong, and the cameras ready. This is the last calm before the buds explode, and you’re right where you should be. — Much love, as always, Your Grow Partner in the Quantum Realm 🌱DD ( Dog Doctor Official ) 📸 Videos, lighting setups, and under-canopy tips coming soon 🔗 Gear links available on request 💬 Always here to talk flower, stretch, or any topic regrding gardening 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Overall I’m happy with how the Blue Dream from Crop Kings came out, despite losing one plant to some odd characteristics likely brought on by being a new grower, but upon receiving input from others, the genetics of that particular plant may have been a little off. I picked a small bud 1 week prior to harvest, and let it dry for 5 days, the wife and I smoked it while camping and thoroughly enjoyed the high it produced. Obviously the on the scale weight is way off at 1338 G, lots of moisture and tons of stem weight. Will update with a total next week when drying is complete. After drying for a week I have now jarred and weighed the final result, and the final tally is 140.77 g or 4.969oz. A very energetic and long lasting high.

Started the first top dressing of Gaia Green All Purpose and Power Bloom at a 50/50 ratio of 1tbsp/gal each.

Hello everyone, people! The plant develops just fine! healthy and full of energy!

27.12 11 week (43 veg/34 bloom)

Here we are at day 56 and so far so good as you guys can tell from the picture she seems to have had too much nitrogen. So the last feeding was strictly green sensation.. The feeding prior I also cut back on nitrogen so hopefully she lightens up some in the coming days.. thank you to Kannabia Seeds for the opportunity to grow this girl.. As you could see, no training at all, so I don't expect much more than maybe 1.5oz or 2 tops .. i will say she's looking good in some of the fan leaves are already producing trichomes.. This girl is a light feeder, so to everyone growing it.Keep that in mind.. I hope everybody is doing well.God bless and happy growing ✌️

Last week of flower. Flushing plants this week with 150 to 200ml water ph 7.0 to 8.0each day Day 76 plants are pretty much ready for harvest. Buds have fattened up a abit. Day 77. Alot more orange hairs. Buds fattening up still by a little. Plenty of milky trichomes. Harder to spot orange trichomes but can see them.

The environmental system seems to be keeping conditions a lot closer then I could manage using guess work and timers, probably the best investment I have made for growing. #3 Gorilla Cookies FF has recovered completely from the accident last week, considering the top was only hanging on by a few fibres the job I did with the tape has held her together quite well. She has been spread out under the net this week to keep her height in check. She has been defoliated during the week and her lowers that won't see the light have been removed. She started showing pistils at the end of the week.

Forbidden Runtz has taken a bit longer than expected. She is showing some amber not much the trycomes a getting milky. She will go a few more days and then she will be cut.

I'm sorry, but at the time I stopped updating the diaries because I moved to a new house and changed my routines. I'll leave a photo of the final product here, but don't worry, I'll be back at full speed. 🚀🚀 new diaries coming 🔜🔜
