A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth. It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did. The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow. I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet. On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

The buds are fattening and getting covered with trichomes very well, most of them are healthy and flowering at the same stage, orange pistols are already popping out, thinking about harvesting in a week or some.

Week 1 went off perfectly, purples babies reaching WEEK 2! 😍 PRESENTATION OF THE LADIES 😍 ------------------------------------------ The four plants are the same genetic. But they already have a different look, and I would introduce them to you :) 1) The Ugly - She have terrible first leaves. But she isn't late compared to the other. So I still believe in my Ugly! 2) The fatties - 2 of them grew wide leaves. It's just about leaves shape for now. 3) The solar panel - This one grew less wide but longer leaves. Regarding the Ugly, I must say that for the 4 seeds, I had to manually remove the shell when they sprouted. They all had their shell on after sprouting, and I don't like that. Probably a bit old seeds? For now, they share the same needs, and seems all happy. But this might change. I may even not be abble to recognize them, except if I cheat on them by putting labels on their pots ^^ 💧 WATERING 💧 ------------------ Luckily, the weather is offering some rains, and I been abble to put the ladies out under the rain during day 7 and 8. Not that long, they still got watered on Day 8, some hours after the rain. With feeding for the first time! 🍗 FEEDING 🍗 ------------------ First feeding. Used Fish-mix at 0.8ml/L. I plan to have a second watering in the week, but without nutrients. That's why I written 0.4ml/L in diary settings. If you know me, you also know that I like Fish-mix, but that I'm also effraid of it ^^ As foliar later during veg, it's an awesome products, easy to see that plants love it. But it seems verry powerfull, and need to be used carefully when given to plant. My rule is to limit to 50% of recommended dose. For now. Anyway, Fishmix right after a rain must turn on every form of life in soil I believe 😀 Even life coming from rain. 🏡 GROWING CONDITIONS 🏡 ----------------------------------- Starting an indoor session on the end of summer seems a good choice for me: - Some rains that provide me better water - I can put the ladies out if verry sunny, to save electricity/money - Perfect temps in the grow room. My house is always windows open. ​The growroom lightup in the end of the afternoon, when the day get cooler - Plants will flowering indoor during winter. I need heat during winter, so thanks grow room :D And cold air mean verry dry air! So reaching low humidity on the end of flowering will be verry easy! Pests : Nothing to report for now. I'm expecting a visit of my good old friends the thrips in 2-3 weeks 😎 Grow tent & Light (XS2000 ViparSpectra) : Something I notice just now: I'm abble to close the grow tent without air-extraction. I never been abble to do that in the past. This light is waaaay more efficient, and produce way less heat, because I couldn't keep tent close with my previous Mars Hydro TSW2000. Don't be effraid, I still renew the air in tent multiple times a day ;) 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Thanks for reading guys :) Thanks for crossing your fingers last week, as you can see.... it worked! PS : Improved my skill with my new camera. But except more and more better ones as I practice ^^ 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Update Day 13: Plants watered with PH 6.2 water. Look at that Hugly... She really have a problem 😅 I'll try my best with her 🙌

XL is just about finished now cloudy with a few amber trichs and stems are struggling to hold their own weight up so I started the flush yesterday with aspirations to pull her in a few days . She’s just a beast this girl incredibly phat dense fruity buds with a real kick in the chest on exhale ( yes I’ve expressed dried a few nugs , I don’t care what anyone says I love smoking a bit of fresh weed ) , some of these buds are gonna be 3oz each dried it’s the epitome of an XL strain . Like I said a flush this week then she’s out . I couldn’t get her out for pics or to take pics of the orange coz the XL is just weighty and starting to bend under her own weight …best problems .

Ciao! Hy Guys! 😄 Sorry for the late, but when I've tried to upload some photos, my connection went and didn't have any free times. By the way, here some snap of the ladies in a "Pretty in Pink" version! About the girls, nothing changed everything changed :D they stack flowers and have a wonderful bouquet of... real strawberry! I've flushed 'em with 20Lt of pure tap water, and I've only have to wait I also upload a very special Christmas video, had some fun doing it! As usual, bros and sis, stop and say Hi! 😉 ps: have a green and high Christmas mates!😍

🌸 WEEK 6 FLOWER — “Giants in Full Bloom” Hello beautiful people! Week 6 is here, and I’m honestly in awe — these girls have turned into monsters in the best possible way. The Permanent Marker genetics are showing their full character now, and it’s pure art to witness. Our Permanent Marker #1, the one who always aimed for the moon, is now proudly showing her colors — purple tones starting to dance along her sugar leaves, a sign that she’s entering her final transformation. Meanwhile, Pheno #2 keeps her deep, loyal greens, compact and elegant, building buds that are dense, heavy, and sparkling. The aroma this week is unreal — floral, rich, and much stronger than expected for this stage. You can already sense the terpene complexity these genetics carry. ⸻ 🌿 Conditions & Strength It’s been hot and humid lately, the kind of weather that tests every grower’s setup. Still, these two girls are standing proud — no signs of stress, no rot, no weakness. While some of their neighbors in the same room have shown small signs of bud rot, our Permanent Markers are holding their ground like true champions. • Room temp: peaks around 31°C • Humidity: ~60% • Soil temp: ~25°C • PPFD (PAR): • Pheno #2: 760–780 μmol/m²/s • Pheno #1: 1,000–1,100 μmol/m²/s provably more lol Both phenos continue thriving under the ThinkGrow and Future of Grow LEDs, the TrolMaster system keeping everything in check, and our Aptus Holland organic recipe delivering balanced, slow-release nutrition through the pellets and boosters. ⸻ 🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to Giants From germination in the CannaKan, three seeds popped strong — and from the start, these two stood out. Through early veg, lush and compact growth, the transplant into Zamnesia 11L fabric pots, and now deep into flower — they’ve been consistent, strong, and stunning. Every week has been a new chapter in this living story. ⸻ 🏆 The Dognabis Cup – It’s Happening! The Dognabis Cup is officially alive and thriving! Boxes have arrived, seeds are popping, and the first diaries are already out there — go check them out! 🌍 Each grower brings their own light, style, and story to the Cup, and that’s what makes it special. Remember: the more detailed, the better your chances to shine. Share your notes, your challenges, your victories — this Cup is about learning, connecting, and celebrating together. To everyone participating — good luck, and thank you for being part of this dream. ⸻ 💚 Gratitude & Community As always, a massive thank you to Zamnesia Seeds, Ocogenectica Seeds, Aptus Holland, ThinkGrow, Future of Grow, Skunk Magazine, FOG, Grovebags, DaggaDNA, Popeyes Passion, Imperial Seeds and TrolMaster, as well as to everyone who follows, supports, and believes in the spirit of this Cup — from the growers to the dreamers, the lovers and even the haters (you’re part of the story too 😄). Together, we grow. 🌿 ⸻ 🌸 What’s Next From here on, we’re expecting more color, more aroma, and that beautiful trichome frost to start covering everything. The finish line is getting closer, and I couldn’t be more excited to see how both phenos express themselves in the coming weeks. ⸻ ✨ “To grow is to share, to bloom is to connect — and through every cup, seed, and story, we keep the garden alive.” **THE DOGNABIS CUP OFFICIALLY STARTED** ⏰ @everyone **The Dognabis Cup** is an independent, community-driven virtual competition designed to bring people together, celebrate and share the passion for cultivation.

Englisch: We have now reached week 2 and the ladies have tolerated the early repotting a little worse than expected. But they recovered from the shock. All 3 biscotti plants are now growing wonderfully and look great so far. With the Gelatos, 1-3 are very uniform and growing well, but 4 and 5 are lagging behind. Time will tell if all 5 will make it to flowering. The two Cookies x Key Lime Pie are unfortunately also a little slower growing than the Biscotti and Gelato 1-3, but I'm so interested in the strain that I'm keeping both plants. Now we come to Herz OG, the strain I was most looking forward to. Heart OG 1 is growing relatively OK, but is clearly lagging behind the Bisottis and Gelatos. Heart OG 2 is growing quite slowly so far. Even slower than number 1. It also shows a mutation on the first pair of leaves. Let's see how it develops... The fertilizer has also been added since the beginning of week 2. Here I use the Athena Blended Line and stick to their feed schedules and the hand watering strategy. Deutsch: Nun sind wir in Woche 2 angekommen und die Ladies haben das frühe Umtopfen doch etwas schlechter vertragen, als gedacht. Aber so langsam erholen sie sich von dem Schock. Alle 3 Biscotti Pflanzen wachsen wunderbar und sehen bisher toll aus. Bei den Gelatos sind 1-3 sehr einheitlich und wachsen gut, jedoch hängen 4 und 5 hinterher. Es wird sich zeigen, ob alle 5 es bis in die Blüte bringen werden. Die beiden Cookies x Key Lime Pie sind leider auch etwas langsamer im Wachstum, als die Biscotti und Gelato 1-3. Der Strain interessiert mich jedoch so sehr, dass ich beide Pflanzen behalte. Nun kommen wir zum Herz OG, die Sorte auf die ich mich am meisten gefreut habe. Herz OG 1 wächst relativ OK, hängt jedoch klar hinter den Bisottis und Gelatos hinterher. Herz OG 2 wächst bisher recht langsam. Noch langsamer als Nummer 1. Sie zeigt außerdem eine Mutation am ersten Blattpaar. Mal schauen wie sie sich entwickelt... Außerdem wurde seit Beginn der Woche 2 der Dünger mit eingebracht. Hier verwende ich die Athena Blended Line und halte mich dabei an deren Feed Schedules sowie die hand watering strategy.

Full flowering. Mimosa and NL1 are getting frosty. The smell is awesome. The GSC for some reason is very small and very bushy... Maybe a weird pheno. Nonetheless all good.

Veg36, están creciendo bastante bien, a esperar unos días para un próximo riego. Veg38, ya hay que revisar amarras y ver si hay hojas abanico tapando algún brazo, siguiente riego era en 1 o 2 días más. Veg40, se regó con EC 2.5 y pH 6.0, se cortaron un par de hojas, hay que seguir haciendo LST para lograr una altura uniforme. Veg41, algunas hojas están mostrando quemadura en la puntas por exceso de nutrientes, los siguientes riegos tendrán que ser más suaves.
