Day 29 Flowering: Hi all. As another week passes these exotic ladies are impressing the hell out of me. They have all really put some energy into forming long colas with really bulky little budlets along their whole stems. Herz o.g is by far the chunkier of the three but not by a big margin at all. her crown is forming nicely from above and I can clearly see her future potential colas. She looks a very nice colour of green on her leaves whichnis down to the Megacrop and its amazing chlorophyll building properties. This will help to really power those fan leaves to pump the nutrients and essentials to the forming buds I am now trying to stress her as little as possible to allow her to keep her focus on that alone and not dealing with uneeded stresses. Strawberry Cola is beginning to build some nice stacks too. Her stretch helped to keep her in the canopy but she is at present overshadowed by a huge mimosa Lemon due harvesting. it has stolen some of her light over the past week or so but this will be corrected as I begin harvesting the other strains running shortly. Monster mash isnrhe biggest surprise... she came up out of nowhere over the last few days. She now towers the whole grow rooms strains. Her cola lengths are looking very positive with the nodes reaching to low in the canopy too. She will also benefit from a move around as I harvest the other strains. She will get a prime position to keep those colas stacking up long. They have all had a defol at day 21 and the air can get around their frames really easily to keep the chance of mould right down. So far so good and very happy days ahead . Be safe and well growmies.

Well, I've been comparing this with similar strains, untill now, i think she sugar kush is less profitable when using LST, but it works good, and the plant is nice and low

🌸 Week 6 Flower – RollerCoaster Haze 🌸 The RollerCoaster Haze ladies continue to impress, towering, branching, and now fully focused on flower production. At this stage, the stretch has slowed down and the energy is clearly moving into bud development. Both phenos are responding exactly as expected: stacking, swelling, and pushing out white pistils everywhere. 📸 Media Update This week we worked mostly with video content, editing clips to show different angles of the canopy, along with a handful of carefully edited photos. I also tested the GoPro inside the tent. While it captures the energy of the grow, the challenge remains: grow lights and reflective walls can be tricky for sensors. It’s part of the experimentation, learning what tools work best for documenting the journey. 🌱 Plant Development • Flowers: Buds are bulking up, calyxes swelling, and pistils standing tall and abundant. • Colas: Long, thick colas are forming, showing that the plants are putting their full effort into bloom. • Health: Leaves remain vibrant and healthy, a great sign that the nutrition plan is balanced. • Size: The girls are still ginormous, filling the tent with their structure and presence. 💧 Feeding & Environment The recipe continues as in Week 5 with the Aptus + Plagron combo, fine-tuned to deliver exactly what they need in mid-flower. The soil’s foundation combined with targeted liquids creates harmony between root uptake and flower demands. • pH: ~6.0 • EC: Moderate, adjusted to soil reserves • Temps: ~28–29°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 The girls show no stress signs, just steady flower development and consistent stacking. 🔬 Educational Spotlight: What Happens in Week 6 Flower? By Week 6, the plants are deep into reproductive growth. Here’s what to expect and observe: • Bud Bulking: Calyxes swell, flowers add weight, and colas begin to take their final shape. • Pistil Production: White hairs remain abundant, showing active flower growth. Some pistils may begin to slightly darken or curl in certain spot, a natural step in maturation. • Trichome Formation: Resin heads start to appear and multiply, laying the foundation for terpenes and cannabinoids. • Nutrient Focus: Plants now require a steady supply of phosphorus and potassium to fuel flower production, while still needing calcium and magnesium for structural support. This is also a week for observation. Every genetic expresses differently, some push pistils longer, others start swelling earlier, some stretch more, others pack tighter. It’s a reminder that growing is about watching, adapting, and learning from each cycle. 🌟 Looking Ahead • Expect even more bulking in the next two weeks, as the flowers really start to pack density. • Trichome coverage will increase noticeably, and aromas will begin to intensify. • Environmental control becomes crucial — high humidity can risk mold at this stage, so keeping air moving is key. ✨ Reflection Week 6 Flower is where the RollerCoaster Haze girls show their true potential. The canopy is vibrant, the flowers are swelling, and every sign points toward a powerful finish. This is the heart of the ride — and these plants are carrying us higher with every day. 🌸 Week 6 Flower – Summary 🌸 • Development: Buds bulking up, calyxes swelling, long colas forming, abundant white pistils. • Health: Vibrant leaves, strong root base, plants remain ginormous and thriving. • Feeding: Aptus + Plagron combo (no All-in-One Liquid), balanced P/K support, steady Ca/Mg. • Environment: • pH: ~6.0 • EC: Moderate, adjusted to soil reserves • Temp: ~28–29°C • RH: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 • Notes: GoPro testing for photos/videos; documenting challenges with tent lighting. • Focus: Observation of pistil production, trichome development, and bud stacking. • Looking Ahead: Expect flowers to pack on more density and trichomes in the coming weeks. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Se empezaron a poner naranja la mayoría de los pistilos, esperaba que se enrosquen antes de que oxidaran pero no sucedió. De ahora en más solo le voy a dar agua para que valla comiendo todo lo que quedo en el sustrato. Voy a priorizar un mejor sabor en esta variedad antes que la cantidad. 03/05 se riega con 2,5 litros de agua + cal mag PH:5.7 EC:0.9 drenaje PH:6.5 EC:2.5 08/05 Empieza el lavado de raices con abundante agua. aun tiene pelitos parados en las puntas. calculo que en 2 o 3 semanas la cosecho.

Welcome to week 4! The plants are really growing along now so we will be looking to transplant as soon as possible into their final homes ( 5 gallon ) I will be topping the plants this week to get some of that branching going and we will be looking to start the flowering process sooner then later. Im aiming for 2 weeks more of veg then flower time if things are in order. Huge shout out to @MarsHydroLED for allowing me to grow with their kick ass equipment! Huge huge shout out goes to all my followers and to the people who stop into the diary alike you guys are kick ass keep on keeping on! -The Projexx Day#22 Pictures N/A Things are starting to grow along nicely , aiming to transplant in a few days! Day#23 Pictures N/A Transplanted plants into their 5 gallon homes except for 2 went into 7s and 2 stayed in their same buckets. Watered 1/2L each at 550PPM Day#24 Plants are digging their new homes , we took some video action. Its getting hard to fit all the plants in 1 frame haha. Day#25 Pictures N/A Plants are just growing along , going to top in the near future. Day#26 Watered ladies 1L each from the bottom at 550PPM. Going to be bottom feeding from here to see if it makes a difference. Day#27 Topped the plants let the branching begin! Day#28 Ladies look unhappy but thats them adjusting for their new nodes! Recap: Things are pushing strong this week we topped the plants and they are growing like nothings happened. I dont know that Im a fan of bottom feeding the plants but well see how things develop in the near future, I may have to practice the technique until im comfy with it as I would normally top feed.

Nov 13 - Day 94 - More bulking up, girls are holding water longer. Watered Older plant at 7.45PM. Started defoliating withered leaves with trichomes, I'm keeping those for now, and will combine with bubble hash trim. Nov 14 - Day 95 - Both pots aren't super light so I'll wait until tomorrow and water both at the same time. Starting to think about drying and harvest, I suspect there to be a fortnight between each harvest - but unsure if I can afford the tent space with next run growing. I think I'll water either as lights turn off (if humidity wont rise) or first thing on Nov 15. Nov 14 - Trichomes are milky with the speckle of clear and amber. Lets hope the lagging cola fattens up in the week to come. Nov 14 - WATERED Younger plant at 10.30PM. Nov 15 - Watered Older plant at 3PM Nov 16 - Watered Younger plant at 5PM Nov 17 - Woke up to 80F. Likely at higher temp for 1 hour before noticing. Defoliated a few leaves, including one or two with trichomes, of which I've saved. Nov 18 - Watered Older plant at 6AM. Younger plant pot is light at lights off- will water first thing in the morning. Also removed dead tips and accidentally chopped a healthy fan leaf. I was hoping to chop today, but it might be another week before the younger plant is ready. Nov 19 - DAY 100 - Watered Younger plant at 10.30AM. Trichomes are developing nicely, I suspect 1 more week with younger plant which makes me wonder when to chop older plant.

Partially drained the tank at the start of the week and topped up with ro water and 1ml of final solution per Litre. Last 2.5 days were in darkness. I trimmed the majority of fan leaves before hanging up to dry in the tent today. Started out trimming with the plants in the tent and soon realised it would be much easier to just cut them down whole, hang them upside down outside the tent and trim them up a bit. I have a small dehumidifier and a small fan heater setup in the tent and they have been keeping a humidity level of about 60% and a temp of 16 Celsius for the last few days while the lights have been off. I figure that's a good starting point for drying and I can increase the temperature if needed, that will drop the humidity also. Intake fan at the bottom and extract fan at the top are running constantly as they have been since the grow started (low power 4" fans). I might add back in a fan for circulation depending on how the drying goes, or maybe even trim or hang the plants better to get more airflow around the buds

28.07.2025 Something is wrong with the stretchy pheno. She is already finishing up. The Flowers are still small. And she looks hardly overfed.. I'll give her one ore two more days and cut her down then. the other two look and smell great! 30.07.2025 I've harvested the stretchy pheno Nr.3. 03.08.2025 I kicked the pheno Nr. 3 out, took new clones from Nr.1 and 2. And transplanted the older clones in bigger pots. And I'm popping a new seed. But that's something for a new diary.

As flores começaram a engordar bem mais rápido agora. Dá para perceber no decorrer da semana o aumento no volume dos buds. Devido ao peso eles estão pendendo para os lados. Tenho que colocar arames para mantê-las na vertical. Isso também melhoraria o espaçamento dos buds.

Last week happened a lot. I Was looking forward for day 49, because it marked the last foliation day. I put away the scrog net ä, because i think i just let those girl the freedom they need. The sidebranches got thicker, and I think i just let them go from now on. This is the first time im really giving nutritions, and the difference is huge. These nugs are crazy. They are 3 weeks before harvest much bigger than These from my first grow. I also have some cal/mag issues on my strawberry Gorilla and my Red mimosa. Lets see if I can handle it. Day 53: i think the plants are struggeling with the high variation in temperature. its between 10 degrees and 28. but i cant move them into a heated building. at least i hope that the yield will be ok, and next grow will be under other circumstances.

The aroma has really started to build up! Just started the flush, worry it might be slightly early and I could just be impatient as I'm really excited for this harvest!

acho que ainda consegui produzir uns tricomas com as correções da água, mas como o estágio da floração já estava bem avançado, as folhas começaram a descolorir muito cedo, tive que colher 3 plantas precocemente, as outras 3 menos vou tentar seguir mais 2 semanas, não estão mostrando tricomas Ambar ainda!

Ayer 07 de agosto, corté la primera de dos plantas "Pineapple express Auto", debo decir que la experiencia con el banco en un principio no fue del todo satisfactoria, ya que soló germinaron 2 de 4 semillas, debo reconocer también que entrando a la fase de floración, las plantas muestran todo su potencial, al cabo de la segunda semana de floración son notorios los olores citricos dentro del armario y en la fase final de la floración, el olor es increible!, dulce citrico y terroso, se siente aspero al inhalar de cerca. En cuanto a las flores, cortas pero muy densas, se nota el aporte de su genetica "Ruderalis" obteniendo "Collogos" densos, robustos y con mucha resina en las partes inferiores de la flores donde la luz llega con una intensidad menor, creo que bajar el fotoperiodo en las ultimas dos semanas de floración puede ser un gran acierto para la generación de tricomas abundantes y terpenos inigualables, lo pondré a prueba. Por lo tanto debo decir que gracias a TOP Crop, Barney´s Farm, las Micorrisas y la luz LED, obtuve excelentes resultados. Laos numeros son: 368 gramos humedos de "Cogollos" los cuales podrían llegar a transformarse en 110 gramos secos de flores. Estén atentos para ver en veinte días más, cuanto bajo la humedad y los verdaderos valores secos. Gracias por mirar y compartir, "buenos humos" hermanos! ______________________________________________________________________ English: Yesterday, August 7, I cut the first of two plants "Pineapple express Auto", I must say that the experience with the bank at first was not entirely satisfactory, since only 2 of 4 seeds germinated, I must also recognize that entering the flowering phase, the plants show their full potential, after the second week of flowering citrus odors are noticeable inside the closet and in the final phase of flowering, the smell is incredible !, sweet citrus and earthy, feels rough By inhaling closely. As for the flowers, short but very dense, the contribution of their "Ruderalis" genetics is obtained obtaining "Collogues" dense, robust and with a lot of resin in the lower parts of the flowers where the light arrives with a lower intensity, I think that lowering the photoperiod in the last two weeks of flowering can be a great success for the generation of abundant trichomes and unparalleled terpenes, I will put it to the test. Therefore, I must say that thanks to TOP Crop, Barney's Farm, Mycorrisas and LED light, I obtained excellent results. The numbers are: 368 grams of wet "Buds" which could become 110 grams of dried flowers. Stay tuned to see in twenty more days, how low the humidity and the true dry values. Thank you for watching and sharing, "good fumes" brothers!🙏
