🌸 Week 2 Flower – BlueBerry Diaries Continue Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 007 ⸻ 🌱 From Seed to Here – A Quick Recap Our BlueBerry journey began with three germinated seeds, from which we carefully selected two strong phenotypes to carry into flower. From delicate sprouts to fast-branching vegetative bushes, they’ve thrived under a mix of Aptus nutrition and precisely managed environments. By Week 4 of veg, their symmetry and vigor showed just how stable and legendary these genetics really are true to the BlueBerry heritage: Afghan strength, Thai influence, and purple notes hidden in their DNA. Now, here in flower, they’re 57 cm tall, nearly twins in their morphology, and fully embracing their transition into bloom. ⸻ 🌸 Week 2 in Bloom – Shifting Morphology This week the girls are changing shape, stacking nodes tighter, pushing pistils, and clearly leaving veg behind. Their body language is all flower now: • Branches are stretching with intention. • Nodes are clustering toward bud formation. • Pistils are reaching, glowing under the LEDs. Despite fewer photos this week (a busy one outside the garden), a room tour video captures it all the environment, the gear, the girls in context. What the photos can’t show, the video will. ⸻ Nutrient Recipe – An Improvised Symphony We shifted last week from Start Booster → Top Booster, and this week we’ve gone further by weaving in Plagron additives. 🌼 Current Recipe (per liter) • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml 📌 Note: All-in-One Liquid is on pause, the soil pellets are providing base nutrition, while Plagron complements are here to push flower expression. Why this recipe? Because flower is about stacking, energy, and quality. • Power Buds → boosts initial flower development • Sugar Royal → supports metabolism + secondary metabolites (terpenes, aromas) • Green Sensation → bloom stimulator for resin and density • Top Booster → P+K push at the perfect timing It’s experimental, yes, but that’s how progress and learning happen. Past runs with Plagron have shown promise, so this run is the testbed for full synergy. ⸻ Room Conditions – Riding the Summer Wave • Temperature peaks: up to 34°C (a bit high) • Humidity range: 50–70% depending on the day • VPD: averaging 1.89 kPa Not perfect, but the girls are adapting beautifully. Their leaves remain vibrant, posture upright, and growth unimpeded. ✅ Upcoming fix: AC unit arriving soon to stabilize temp & RH into optimal ranges. ⸻ 🌊 Watering & Substrate Monitoring Irrigation is triggered when soil moisture drops to 19–20%, measured precisely by the TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor, connected to the Tent-X brain. This system doesn’t just track moisture, but also EC and medium data, giving real-time insights into what’s happening below the surface. It’s like having an X-ray into the soil, ensuring that every watering is timely and efficient. ⸻ 💡 Lighting & Ecosystem • Future of Grow LEDs + ThinkGrow Model 1 LEDs running together, controlled by TrolMaster ecosystem. • New addition: Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W in the tent, expanding coverage and spectrum flexibility. As the canopy thickens, we’ll be increasing light intensity to match plant demand and keep PPFD within optimal flowering ranges. ⸻ 🐝 A Moment for the Bees – Nature’s Allies This week, alongside garden updates, I want to honor the bees 🐝💛. In the wild, bees are the silent partners of flowering plants, carrying life between blossoms, ensuring the cycle of fruit, seed, and renewal continues. Without them, much of what we enjoy in gardens and on our tables would not exist. Just as I guide my BlueBerries with nutrients, lights, and sensors, bees guide the world with wings, pollen, and persistence. They are tiny alchemists, weaving ecosystems together. So here’s a fairy-tale note for the bees: “Every pistil in my tent glows in light. Every flower in the fields waits for you. May the hum of your wings remind us always, life depends on the smallest of guardians.” ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – Week 3 Flower We expect: • Bud stacking to intensify • Resin glands to begin sparkling • Aroma to whisper into the air (first terpenes awakening) • Nutrient balance to remain key as morphology shifts fully into flower No heavy defoliation yet, focus stays on stability, airflow, and adaptation as the stretch slows and flowers bulk begins. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – Busy Week, Blooming Garden Even without many photos, the garden speaks for itself. The video tour shows it: thriving plants, a robust ecosystem, and the beauty of legendary genetics expressing in modern conditions. From seed, through veg, and now two weeks into flower, the BlueBerry story continues to write itself. And it’s a story of balance: between nature and technology, experiment and tradition, the grower’s hand and the plant’s will. With bees in the fields and LEDs in the tent, life is thriving. And that’s what this journey is all about. 🌸🌍🐝 Growers Love to you all, DD (DogDoctor)🌱💚 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Day 51, 4th of November 2020: The 3rd day since the lamp switched to be 12/12... I raised up the nutrition intake as it can be seen above only the BioBizz family 2ml/l and removed some LST because the plant remains in shape or just set a bit but nothing significant.... She looks good....strech is on the way..... 😅 Nothing really to report there is crazy 2-3 weeks from now ;) ;)

This was quite the grow y'all. The blumat soaker hose was a great addition... once I figured out why it kept getting stopped up. I can't wait to get another living soil grow going cause that was a lot of fun!

First buds appeared this Wednesday! Still continuing with shed time at night; I'm still dwelling how/when/if I'll stop this. From start to stop, I can get the plants out in the morning in 7 minutes, and put them away at night in 5. It's also time I'd love to get back. But it also could prevent them being seen by casual weed thieves, as well as saving them from frequent night rains in Sept. But they're also soon going to be getting sticky which will suck for handling them. Speaking of, I'll probably pick a separate shirt to use while doing this, as even tying them up a bit more today has probably made it so I'll reek of weed until I change. Speaking of tying them up, the video allows one to see trees in the background getting tossed around in the wind, while they don't have too much movement. And I love my windchimes :) . Still watering 5 gallons every 2-3 days. Today was pretty cool; only a high of 26C.

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower and i bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , this lady is by far the bushyist plant with the most branches she also didn't stretch much and is packed with bud sites ,

A white christmas for me after all! 😂 Week 13 harvest! Plant 1 = 67 grams/2.3 oz Plant 2= 55 grams/1.9 oz overall= 4.2 oz (5-7 day dry) The Gorilla Cookies are soooo damn frosty and stinky…i’ll be drooling at them for a month until I can taste them!!!! Photos mostly of plant 2..1 was coated in resin but plant 2..the frostiness can be seen from far away! My first top shelf grow 😈…hopefully more to come! My glove was literally sticking to the stems and getting stuck with plant #2 The stench reminds me of thanksgiving dinner LOL..sausage stuffing and gas is what comes to mind..very savory aroma! One plant flushed partially the other not flushed and I can tell you that the flushed plant has much more flavorrrr..if this didn’t prove to me that flushing is absolutely essential IDK what would! LOL

2024/01/20 : as it survived, shiva skunk got a decent pot (1 gallon smartpot 50% canna coco pro / 50% hydroton) and 3 others are going on LST... 3 days growth : afghani #1 - 19.0 cm (+3.0) sensi skunk - 17.5 cm (+4.5) hindu kush - 16.5 cm (+3.0) shiva skunk - 11.5 cm (+2.0) 2024/01/23 : shiva skunk looks bad, with leaves going down and yellowing... it didn't like its transplant. The others are looking OK. I may have seen first pistils... The heights are : afghani #1 - 22.0 cm (+3.0) sensi skunk - 18.5 cm (+1.0) hindu kush - 18.5 cm (+2.0) shiva skunk - 11.0 cm (-0.5) 2024/01/24 : spayed with Foliar Spray from B.A.C. last night, don't know if it was OK for shiva skunk, we'll see. 3 others are preflowering without a doubt now. afghani #1 - 24.0 cm (+2.0) sensi skunk - 20.0 cm (+1.5) hindu kush - 21.0 cm (+2.5) shiva skunk - 11.5 cm (+0.5) 2024/01/25 : shiva skunk is struggling but it's not done yet. And I think stretch began for others.

En esta actualización se incluyen 2 semanas ya que por trabajo me fue imposible añadir la semana anterior. El día 15 de Agosto recibió la segunda pulverización de Bacillus Thuringiensis para prevenir el ataque de las orugas. Sigo alternando riego de agua un día con riego de Ascophillum Nodosum al día siguiente. He dejado de regar con Cannazym. Se aprecia una carencia de nitrógeno.

Day42 of flowering Girl #1 seems to have tighter buds and is still smaller, but looks like she will finish later (although she popped first by a few days) Girl#2 is much heavier and has sucked the green from her lowest fan leaves even though she is fed well. She also smells soooo good, over ripe cantaloupe/melons. I am really happy with these plants, which I did not top and let colas grow. I am thinking of removing the cola fan leaves to let light blast the other tops. Day 45, Removed almost all fan leaves to expose as much bud as possible to lighting. Scent is very strong and sweet. Very resinous leaf

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.
