Pistils changing colour slowly. No idea how many weeks left 😁 She's big 😍

Here we are. Week 2. On the Day 8 video, I give my method on how I produce nearly zero larf and huge buds. It's easier than most think 😉

This brings the Journal up to speed. So going to start the 48 hour FLush this upcoming Sunday as well as going to move it to 48 hours of light insted of 48 hours of darkness. Then straight into the Freeze dryer to bring it down to 60% humidity in the bud and then to the curing jars. Going to be Timber 2 days into Week 9 of FLower. 1/20/2023 Week 8 (Day 5)- Flower- Day 107 overall T - 2 days until start 48 hour Flush T - 2 days until Start 48 hours of Light T - 4 days until TIMBER!!! 1/22/2023 Week 8 (Day 7) -FLower- Day 109 Overall Flush Day and 48 hours of Light. I subscibe to Dr. Bruce Bugbee's suggestion that production is under light instead of under darkness so I no longer do 48 hours of Darkness, I go 48 hours of light before Chop, sending my plants on a marathon run before I Cut. Here is Dr. Bruce on basics of lighting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID9rE5JewVg T-2 days until TIMBER

🌸 Week 1 – Flowering Stage Strain: Permanent Marker (Zamnesia Seeds) Project: Dognabis Cup Example Grow 🌍 ⸻ 💚 Transition Into Flower The girls wasted no time: at ~90 cm tall, they’re stretching beautifully, branching with symmetry, and already showing early pistils by the end of the week. Both phenos (PM#1 and PM#2) are very close in appearance, but Pheno #1 is leading slightly in height (about 5 cm taller), while PM#2 is equally vigorous and balanced. This uniformity is exciting, strong genetics with consistency across the phenos. The kind of stability you want in a Cup. ⸻ 📸 Studio Session Took them out for a proper photo shoot with the Sony 📷. Leaves shining, structure elegant, early flower sites beginning to peek through. Even filmed a few videos to capture this milestone. They’re looking like queens, and it’s a joy to document every step. ⸻ 💧 Feeding – Adjustments for Flower We’ve officially adjusted the recipe to start the flowering journey: • ❌ Start Booster – removed • ✅ Top Booster – added at 0.25 ml/L • ❌ All-in-One Liquid – paused (the All-in-One Pellets + pre-mixed recipe in the soil are now fully active and doing the job beautifully) • ✅ CalMag Boost – continued • ✅ Regulator – continued • pH: ~6.1 • Feed EC: ~0.6 This gentle transition sets the base for flower, without overwhelming them. ⸻ 🍃 Notes & Observations Some leaf burn spots appeared this week, nothing major. Likely from wind stress with the fan blowing directly on them. Honest note: it’s part of the process, and we show the good and the less-than-perfect. Overall, the plants are thriving, strong, and unfazed by small imperfections. ⸻ 🌱 From Seed to Here – Quick Recap • Week 1–2: Germination & early veg, bottom-fed by hand • Week 3: Transplant to 11L Zamnesia fabric pots, roots thriving, super soil mixed with Aptus Holland products (MycorMix, All-in-One Pellets, Substrate Buffer Powder) • Week 4 Veg: Explosive growth, steady feeding, compact structure, preparing for flip • Week 1 Flower (now): ~90 cm tall, branching beautifully, pistils showing, first signs of floral transition ⸻ 🎓 Looking Ahead • Expect stretch to continue through the next 1–2 weeks • Bud sites will begin stacking, pistils multiplying • Watch closely for balance in nutrition, especially with Top Booster now active • AC unit arriving soon will help stabilize temps (currently peaking ~31°C) ⸻ 👑 Genetics & The Cup Permanent Marker is more than just a strain, it’s a modern heavyweight with a strong pedigree (Biscotti x Jealousy x Sherb Bx). These genetics are already proving themselves with vigor, balance, and beauty. As the organizer Dognabis Cup, it’s a privilege to showcase them here. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for providing the seeds, and to all the sponsors who support this journey.

Es geht in die Blüte 😃 Ich kenne den Strain noch nicht und rechne trotz topping mit einer starken Streckung in den erst ca. 4 Wochen. Ich liebe es ja jedes Mal zu sehen wie schnell sich die Pflanzen entwickeln und nach Umstellung des Lichts verändern. Ab jetzt werde ich bei jedem gießen den Mineralischen Dünger von Plagron verwenden. Trauermücken nerven hart sollten aber dank fressfeinden bald Geschichte sein. Ich bin gespannt 😉

Let her flush for 12 days and cut her down yesterday. Next update when shes dried, trimmed, and weighed.

BANANA PURPLE PUNCH - 420 fast buds Wow what a strain , week 6 and she’s starting to add n some weight to her flowers. Bright deep purple color all over , smells like berries and vanilla , absolute 12/10 for the smell and look of the flower. I’m highly anticipating the harvest of this beauty DRSHOTZUK

The trichomes on the Runtz are all milky and I'm getting some amber on the sugar leaves, I think the end is near 😁 The G13 is looking great and smelling wonderful, the buds are getting heavier and same for the GDP

The runtz are about 45cm start of this week and the tall LCC is 75cm. She is also further into flower, but did not spread out so much in the tent. RAK seems to be very good with high PPFD, for the LCC they need a bit less I can feel.

🌱 Week 11 Update 🌱

She has a strong sweet floral smell. This was a great grow with the Agrogardens nutrition under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. I didn't have any major growing issues during the grow. Everything looks great, and produced great. Thank you Medic Grow, Agrogardens, and Doctor's Choice. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 the harvest video will be on my YouTube channel. 👍🏻🔥 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Did a jump start tea, 3 feeds of cutting edge solutions. For past 4 weeks have Found one adult spider mite per week, and destroyed eggs on the leaf's bottom with the white spots. I have no clue where they came from never had them before. I live next to a river and it is spider season so the normal spiders have been hunting the mites just becasue they are attracted to the lights at night. I don't see the mites as a threat and I'm not going to spray for them I might try to make a ladybug farm if I see more.

Been a long time growing this one but soon ready to put it into bloom.
