Buds are getting denser, stickier and stinkier this week. Defoliated a few leaves from each plant throughout the week. Watered every 2 days with a 1/4 gallon to each. They got a mild compost tea beginning of the week to boost the microbial life and their final top dress towards the end of the week. Aerated Compost Tea Recipe (24 hour brew) 2 gallons rain water 2 cups Coast of Maine Lobster Compost 3 tablespoons GS Plant Foods Fish & Kelp 3 tablespoons EWC 1 tablespoon kelp meal 1 tablespoon azomite 2 tablespoons molasses Top Dress per 3 gallon container 3 tablespoons Dr Earth Flower Girl 1 tablespoon Down to Earth All Purpose 1/2 tablespoon Down to Earth crab meal 1/4 cup EWC Day 43 - watered with 50/50 mix of compost tea and rain water pH 6.0 Day 45 - plain rain water pH 6.4 Day 47 - top dress and plain rain water pH 6.4 Day 49 - rain water w/ Recharge @ 1 tsp per gallon and Natural Wet @ 1 tbsp per gallon pH 6.5 StayWeeded ✌️

4/27 1 PM thank you Fast Buds!!! We have Gelato Auto we got our special Mendo Frost Auto for our mystery box today. It’s very exciting and a Frost Banger Auto F4!! greatest day of my life!! I just love everything about them😍🌿🌿🌿🌿 4/28 1:54PM massive painful thing on back of neck infected with i would f....ing die alaready!!! i cant move much, very painful 4/29 2:45AM Not moving well. EC 1.7 today not much runoff, maybe bottom feed but i dont want to burn the plants BUT I cant move so another trade off 4/29 9:18AM NEW GROW THEME ....RACE WAR GROW..SPONSORED BY THE SPLC!!!!I GOT A REVA 3RD SISTER ACTION FIGURE, SHE GOES FULL DARK SIDE AND MARRIES JAR JAR WHO IS SECRTLY THE HEAD OF THE EMPIRE KLU KLUX KLAN....SO REVA MARRIES INTO THE KLAN...AND THE WEDDING IS SPONSORED BY.......THE SPLC!!!! ITS PERFECT. OMG...AND WE CAN DO A MONTEL GROW AND HE CAN DO A SHOW NEXT ON MONTEL, REVA, WHAT WENT WRONG?? 5/1 5AM **Hell yeah, that’s the kind of late-night (or early-morning) epiphany we love.** Dr Pepper + peanut butter cookies sounds like a wild, sweet-salty, cherry-cola spiced twist. The 🌿😂 makes total sense—some of the best flavor combos hit when you’re relaxed and creative. ### How to actually make Dr Pepper flavor work in cookies Dr Pepper’s profile (cherry, vanilla, warm spices, cola bite) needs concentration so it doesn’t just evaporate or make the dough too wet. Here are practical ways: 1. **Reduction/Syrup** (best for strong flavor) Simmer 2 cups Dr Pepper in a saucepan over medium heat until it reduces by half (about 1 cup). It’ll get syrupy and concentrated. Let it cool. Use ¼–⅓ cup in your peanut butter cookie dough in place of some sugar or liquid. This gives real Dr Pepper taste without watering it down. 2. **Simple cake-mix hack** (super easy starter) Mix a chocolate or vanilla cake mix with 6–8 oz Dr Pepper + peanut butter. People make 2-ingredient Dr Pepper cookies this way—add ½ cup creamy peanut butter to the batter for your twist. Fold in chopped peanuts or a swirl of extra PB. 3. **From-scratch peanut butter cookie base + Dr Pepper** Start with a classic PB cookie (butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg, flour, baking soda/soda, vanilla, salt). - Replace some brown sugar with the Dr Pepper reduction. - Add 1–2 tsp vanilla + a pinch of cinnamon or allspice to echo the soda’s spices. - Optional: a few drops of cherry or almond extract to amp the Dr Pepper notes. ### Quick test recipe idea (Dr Pepper PB Cookies) - ½ cup butter, softened - ½ cup creamy peanut butter - ½ cup brown sugar + ¼ cup Dr Pepper reduction (from above) - 1 egg - 1 tsp vanilla - 1¼ cups flour - ½ tsp baking soda - Pinch salt + optional cinnamon Cream butter + PB + sugars/reduction. Add egg + vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients. Chill dough 30 min. Bake at 350°F for 10–12 min. They’ll spread a bit and get chewy with that cola kick. **Pro tips**: - Reduction is key—plain Dr Pepper in dough usually bakes off too much. - If you want stronger flavor, look for Dr Pepper extract/flavoring online (some baking sites sell “Dr Soda” type). - Top with a light glaze: powdered sugar + a splash of Dr Pepper reduction. Go make a small test batch with what you have. Report back how it turns out—I’m genuinely curious if the cherry-cola + peanut butter hits as good as it sounds in your head. What’s the vibe you’re going for—chewy, crunchy, or fudgy? Got any other flavors you wanna mash in? Let’s refine this masterpiece. 🌿🍪 5/1 7AM 1.5EC 6.0 pH 2 liters each Maxi Bloom powder only. 5/6 5 AM AC 1.078 pH 6 light runoff today 5/17 12:45AM having trouble setting my theme music for dramatic entrances in EVERY room, EVERY SINGLE TIME.....

Very strong week. Stopped Rhizotonic. Began LST. After feeding the gelato just pH water the paleness subsided and more colour came back to the plant. Gelato starting to grow bushy, strong growth from both plants.

This week she has thrived immensely and continue to grows each day. I have only given pure water because of the excess nutrients she received last week. Looking well so far, perhaps a but of defoliation needed in the next week or so.

Welcome Back!💚 Die zweite Blütewoche ist vorbei und die Pflanze entwickelt sich weiterhin prächtig. Die Blütenansätze sind schön erkennbar und die Pistilen bilden sich weiter aus. Überraschenderweise wirken die Blätter sehr Sativa lastig, wobei genetisch eine Indica Dominanz vorherrschen müsste. Außerdem ist ihr Wuchsverhalten eher Indica dominiert. Jetzt ging die Pflanze etwas mehr in den Stretch und ist mit ihren Indica dominanten Mitbewohnerinen gleich auf. Die Werte im Zelt sind optimal auf die Blüte eingestellt. ——————— 🌞 Temp: 24°C 🌚 Temp: 20 °C 💨 RH: 56% VPD: 0,97 kPa 😎PPFD: 830 mqm ——————— Stay Tuned! 💚

Buds are getting bigger by the day. I’ve trimmed a lot of fan leaves off to reveal more flower sights, plants didn’t seem to stress much.

🌱 Nectar Drip — Week 12 (Week 6 Flower | 12/12 From Seed) We’re now at Week 11/12 from seed, which in this run we define as Week 6 of flower under a true 12/12-from-seed cycle. For anyone just joining — this entire run skipped the traditional vegetative phase. From day one, these plants were placed under 12/12 lighting, creating a growth pattern that behaves closer to autoflowers: fast decisions, no recovery windows, and every day counts. And that’s exactly how we got here. ⸻ ⚙️ Current State — Cruise Control, Maximum Awareness At this stage, the environment is locked and stable: * Light intensity, CO₂, EC, substrate, watering rhythm — all consistent * Hand watering continues daily, allowing direct plant-to-grower feedback * No major adjustments — only observation, correction if needed, and respect for the process This is the silent phase. Nothing dramatic… but everything important is happening. We’re watching closely for: * Any signs of mold or mildew * Micro-deficiencies or excess * Structural stress from weight and density The room is healthy, responsive, and pushing hard. ⸻ ❄️ Week 6 Flower — What’s Actually Happening This is where things accelerate. At Week 6 flower, the plant shifts its energy almost entirely into: * Bud mass expansion * Calyx swelling * Resin (trichome) production And it shows clearly: * Flowers getting denser by the day * Tighter internode stacking * Heavy frost levels across tops and secondary sites This phase is peak reproductive momentum. In a 12/12-from-seed run, it feels faster because: * No extended veg buffer * Continuous clock since day one * Any early efficiency compounds now Right now — they’re efficient. ⸻ 💡 Top-to-Bottom Development — The Under Canopy Effect One of the key observations this run: 👉 Plants are finishing more evenly from top to bottom The under-canopy lighting is driving that by: * Feeding lower bud sites * Reducing top-heavy maturity * Keeping secondary flowers in pace with main colas Result: * More uniform ripening * Better canopy utilization * Less larf, more usable flower ⸻ 🌿 Training vs Natural Growth — Lesson Reinforced Clear takeaway this week: The trained plant is: * Smaller * Slower * Noticeably behind 👉 12/12 from seed does not forgive recovery time Every training event: * Pauses momentum * Redirects energy into repair instead of growth In a cycle this fast, that cost shows up directly in: * Size * Structure * Final yield Conclusion: Less interference, more flow. ⸻ 📸 Frost, Resin & Macro World This is where the visuals take over: * Trichome production fully active * Sugar leaves coated * Buds developing a textured, almost sculpted surface Macro and focus stacking work has started. This is the phase where the plant stops looking like a plant — and starts looking like a landscape. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 7 Flower) The shift ahead is subtle but critical: * Continued calyx swelling * Pistils darkening and receding * Resin heads moving toward maturity * Aromas intensifying This marks the start of the ripening phase. No rushing. No overcorrection. Maintain. Observe. Let it finish. ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude — Energy Exchange Respect to: * GrowDiaries * The community — OGs, new eyes, supporters, skeptics, critics * The genetics * The gear * Everyone crossing paths with this run Energy moved — this is the outcome. ⸻ 👨‍🚀 Mr. Baggy — On Duty Mr. Baggy is: * On-site * Behind the lens * Watching everything closely And doing a solid job at it. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

I made a concoction of living soil using ingredients I could find of subcools formula. Theoretically all i need to add is ph balanced water. And a tea once I decide to flower. I'm waiting for some gadgets[ph and moisture meters]to come in before doing any extensive watering.

Venga familia ya viene la cosecha de estas Runtz de MSNL, que ganas que tenía ya de darles tijera. Para empezar es buena variedad un poco tardía de lo que dicen pero me encantó cultivarla , aún con la plaga de trips que sufrí las 2 últimas semanas aguantaron y sacaron unas flores alucinantes. Las flores aparte se ven resinosa y tienen colores llamativos. La planta pues si creció vigorosa, no es muy frondosa y es resistente. Fue una genética con la que disfruté bastante y es bastante fácil de cultivar.

Reviewing the plants i noted some small dots on the leaves which looked like typical bites from mites, so i sprayed some spidermite and we placed around 6 spical ulti-mite bags to prevent any further damage, lets hope it dont get worse but i think I've detected them just on time 😁 For the rest the plants are looking good, the buds are getting bigger and more thc is being produced 😁 we still have around 4 weeks to go 😅

Although both plants are amnesia haze, they seem to be showing very different traits already. AH#1 is forming typical Sativa like buds as expected and should be ready for harvest in the next couple weeks. AH#2, while 3 weeks younger, is much much more pungent than her older sister and the plant is already a lot bigger in size!

Week 10 Flower 6 Runtz is in her last week; I started the week off 3/10 with water and feed. On her next water day, I started adding ice to the top of the pot 3/12 I added ice to the top of the pot and watered 2 ltr with PH6.7 3/13 Ice on the top of the pot 3/14 more ice and 2 ltr Ph 6.67 3/15 she was feeling light so I watered 2ltr 6.5 water. Apparently she is still drinking and many not be fully ready. Runtz is maturing almost as fast as the blue cheese gals and faster than the other strains in the tent. After flushing excess nutrients out of the soil and plant, Runtz is showing fade and nutrient usage in the upper leaves. The buds are stacking fatter and packing on more resin on the buds which are sticky and hard. The stems are strong and support the heavy buds. I used a microscope and got some good trichome shots. The trichomes are mostly milky and some clear ones remaining. Some purples show in the leaves. The older pistils are turning orange brown. Some new white hairs are still forming. Bloom Juice 90 ml Royal Rush 8 ml Power bud 8 ml Green sensation 12ml Cal Mag 20ml Recharge 5ml Ppm ranged from 259-681 Ph 6.5 -6.7 Temp 68 Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Day 17F-24F (Day 19) Man it’s such a shame that bbb#1 stunted out. It was so damn vigorous until it’s most recent feeding. I will make sure to cut back on teas next round as they can be a wild card sometimes. All 5 plants are packing on some serious early frost. But I’m not seeing too much chunk to the buds yet. My other grow that was flipped on the same day has almost no frost yet so that’s a good sign. (Day 21) Big strip today. I will pull off as many leaves as I need to ensure nearly all bud sites are exposed to adequate light. I’m still seeing excess N so I’m going to water in 2 gallons each until I get some runoff. The plants seem to be up taking water pretty decently so I’m going to push it a little with a heavier watering. Wow do the plants look amazing after that strip and flush! Everything is praying up beautifully, including #3 in the back. Let’s hope that gets it back on track now. (Day 22) I want to give a PK boost but all my bloom nutrients have way too much N and I don’t really want to risk it toxing anymore. I could give it a little bit of 0-18-0 bat guano and some 0-0-15 kelp extract but it could be completely unnecessary. I can’t see any signs of deficiencies but a small surplus couldn’t hurt either. (Day 23) I like how the ladies responded to the thorough watering. I will up my watering to 1 gallon every 48 hours from now on. It sucks to see how short bbb#1 is. I was expecting such a huge stretch but it never came because of that fucking tea! I should have leached the medium as soon as I saw stunting. It’s too bad because it definitely had the most potential for yield. (Day 24) I’m starting to think the main problem with bud size this round is all the topping I did early on. Not to mention they were vegging for nearly 3 months. I will try to pick off most of the larf before it wastes anymore energy. I think the ideal style of growing for bud size and veg time is a semi sea of green, or 6-8 plants per 25 square feet. I’m not a big fan of these giant plants as it’s a lot of wasted veg time and smaller bud size overall. The smell is really ramping up!

Goodday growbrethren and sistren hope yal r enjoying the green life 😸 Dosidos is doing great, despite of being eaten alive by Caterpillers ATM.. She is almost done so i cant spray anything on her ... 'luckily'the CP's are big now, so i can spot them more easily But dammit!, they have eaten almost all the leafs! She has had a lil accident too this week, Runtz has fallen on top of her!! (sudden strong winds..they were standing on the ground) But luckily nothing was totally broken.. I gave her some bandage for the cola that was injured (i use bandage and not tape, bc thats more flexible) and some support with wire 👍 and another luck we are having here rn (im so lucky, im gonna fall under a bus!) is that we are having a nice 'late summer' here.. temp is still above 20C with lots of sun and now and then a big rainfall...(she goes in safehouse then) so i think(hope!) she can finish her buds before the CP's do!!(next year, im gonna throw a net over the safehouse, over the openings, to protect from evil butterflies😳 and such. think its gonna help.. a bit) happy growing for all✊

I finally started flowering the crescendo rbx1 and I’ve got to say, she looks great! Green stems and leaves. She fills out this 5x5 pretty well and I’m happy with it. Plucked a couple leaves that blocked prime bud sites and weaved her long arms outwards to fill up my tent and get more light penetration.
