Schnabeldino ๐ฑ New Grow โ New Adventure! ๐ฑ Monster Maker from SweetSeeds
๐ Specs for the heads:
๐จโ๐พ Genetics: 60% Indica / 40% Sativa
โฑ๏ธ Flowering time: 8โ9 weeks (indoor)
๐ฅ Potency: ~22โ30% THC
๐ Aromas: fruity with sweet and sour nuances; strawberry, lemon & mandarin (fresh, distinct citrus note) + wild berries (sweet & exotic)
๐งโโ๏ธ Effect: starts off creative & stimulating, transitions into a clear, revitalizing calm
๐ฑ Germination & Substrate ๐ฑ
I first placed the Monster Maker seed in a glass of water for 12 hours until the seed coat opened. Then I placed it in a damp paper towel for 24โ48 hours until the radicle had formed.
At the same time, I prepared the substrate: 5 g Startrex was mixed into the BioBizz light mix soil. I dusted the planting hole with a little Mycotrex before planting. After about 1.5 days, the little monster was born, ready to take on the world. In the first few days, the seedlings stood under my SANlight Flex II at ~150โ200 PPFD (18/6). The moderate intensity kept the babies compact, prevented stress, and promoted rapid root formation.

๐ธMy Monster Maker has mastered the first week superbly. ๐
It looks strong and lively, the green is rich, and the first serrated fan leaves next to the cotyledons are there. The stem has a slight purple sheen โ probably from being a little too wet at the start, after I soaked it once with Bactrex and Orgatrex at the beginning. That one watering was actually enough for the whole week. In the meantime, it is back on track and problem-free.
๐ธI am really happy with the start. After the short โwet phase,โ it has recovered nicelyโstrong color, fresh growth, and an overall healthy impression. For week 2, I will remain patient: water gently, keep the climate stable, and just let it continue to grow in peace. ๐ฑ

๐ธ Still cruising in the 1-L pot for now; transplant is coming up next. Iโll prep the new container with Bactrex mixed into the soil and a small pinch of Mycotrex right in the planting hole so the roots meet the mycorrhiza on contact. Compact, rich green canopy with short internodes. Side branches are stacking nicely and the center is pushing fresh growthโshe looks eager for more room.
๐ธ Whatโs next: One careful transplant, then gentle watering and a bit of LST once she settles in.
๐ธ Summary: Holding steady and healthy. Monster Maker is thriving in the 1-L pot and looks more than ready to stretch her legs in a bigger home soon. ๐ฑโจ

Day 28 โ Monster Maker ๐น๐ฟ
๐ธ The Monster Maker lives up to its name. It is compact, rich green, and very uniformโa really beautiful, broad bush. The shoots are strong, the internodes short, and the canopy is closing more neatly every day. You can tell that it took the training in stride; the stems are already well hardened and are visibly increasing in girth. The soil life also seems well established โ it drinks rhythmically and without any problems.
๐ธCare is unremarkable, it reacts calmly to the watering regime so far. The leaves are mostly healthy; a few older tips show minimal โkissingโ โ nothing dramatic, more a sign that it is working properly. New shoots are vigorous and close together, just as I want them to be.
๐ธThe light is now set to 12/12. The transition is going smoothly: the crown is nice and even, the perfect basis for a clean start to flowering. I expect a controlled stretch with many tops of equal height.

Day 35 โ Monster Maker ๐น๐ฟ
๐ธThe Monster Maker has kicked into turbo gear for its first week of 12 hours light. The bush has become significantly wider, the side shoots have caught up nicely and are closing the canopy in an almost circular shape. From above, it looks like a green carpet โ very even, with no outliers. The foliage is rich green, the leaves firm and aligned. There is a hint of patina on a few old tips โ nothing wild.
๐ธStretching has begun, but remains under control. Internodes remain short to medium, the tops are at the same height โ exactly as I wanted. The first fine pre-flowers are appearing at the nodes โ the switch to 12/12 is taking effect. Leaves are being further โtuckedโ so that light can reach the center and air can circulate well. I'll wait a few more days before doing any major defoliation.
๐ธThe rhythm is right โ she's drinking steadily. No signs of stress or overdoing it.
๐ธI'm planning some light pruning/lollipopping around the bottom at the end of the stretch phase so that the energy goes into the main buds. Then she should really blossom and fill out the crown nicely.

๐ธ This week marked an exciting milestoneโMonster Maker has officially entered the flowering phase! After six weeks of growth, she is now showing her first clear signs of flowering. Tiny white hairs are sprouting up everywhere among the lush green leavesโa sure sign that she is ready to put her energy into forming flowers. The main shoots are strong and upright, the side shoots have developed well and already bear several small inflorescences. The foliage is lush, deep green, and shows no signs of deficiency.
๐ธThis week, only water was used for watering. Water requirements are increasing slightly as it now begins to focus its energy more on flower formation.
๐ธNext week, I will do some light pruning and cut away some of the lower branches. I think it's very messy, not particularly attractive but funny.

Schnabeldino ๐ Week 7 | Flowering Week 2โ3 | Monster Maker ๐น๐ฟ
๐ธ Monster Maker is absolutely thriving this week! Weโre deep into the flowering stage now (around week 2โ3), and sheโs showing off big time. Every top is bursting with fluffy white pistils that look like tiny fireworks going off all over the plant โ sheโs clearly in full bloom mode! ๐ฅ๐ธ Her structure looks amazing โ tall, strong main stems with tons of well-developed side branches, each carrying clusters of young buds. The leaves are a rich, deep green with a healthy shine, showing zero signs of stress or deficiency. Sheโs standing proud and balanced โ wild, but graceful at the same time.
๐ธThis week she only got plain water, no extras. Still, her energy is through the roof โ water intake is going up, and you can tell sheโs channeling everything into flower production. Iโll start giving her BIO PK from BioTabs next watering to boost bud development and help her stack those flowers even more.
๐ธI did a light lollipopping session this week โ all the small lower budsites were removed since they wouldnโt get much light anyway. Now she can focus all her energy on building up those top colas where it really counts.. But honestlyโฆ sheโs looking so good right now, itโs hard to touch her. Monster Maker is in full model mode โ lush, perky, and rocking her white pistil crown like a queen. ๐๐

Monster Maker๐น๐ฟ | The monster awakensโand it has resin in its blood
๐ธThis week, Monster Maker is really starting to live up to its name...sheโs turning into a true beast in bloom! Her structure is beautifully open and evenly branched, every top stretching proudly toward the light. The canopy looks like a small jungle of promise, the buds stacking up along the branches, each one wearing a fuzzy crown of thick white pistils.The foliage is a rich, deep green โ healthy, vibrant, and confident. Thereโs a calm strength in her posture, like she knows exactly what sheโs doing.
๐ธA soft frost is starting to appear, as the trichomes wake up and shimmer under the light...early signs of the sticky madness thatโs on the way. Under the SANlight (โ1000 PPFD at the top) sheโs thriving, soaking up every photon without a hint of stress or burn.
๐ธThis week she got her 1 L shot of BIO PK from BioTabs, and sheโs clearly loving it. You can tell sheโs putting that boost to good use, the buds are swelling, the internodes stay tight, and everything about her says balanced and powerful.
Sheโs not just growingโฆ sheโs building momentum. The Monster Maker name feels more fitting every day. ๐ธ๐

@Mrs_Larimar, Yes, I think so, but luckily they won't stay in there for long. Everything that's in the soil should be enough for the first few days. She didn't like being repotted very much; it took her a few days to settle in. Now she feels really comfortable. ๐
@Brujha77, Jaaa, mal schauen was die anderen beiden noch so machen. Die fastbuds die gerade in die Blรผte gehen...wenn die ohne Probleme durch kommen, werde ich nichts anderes mehr machen ๐ natรผrlich muss die Qualitรคt auch stimmen ๐
@MrGoonai, I haven't done much so far, and it's not like I'm always pruning, but this plant looks pretty wild at the bottom and could use a little defoliation. I always wait until the end of the stretch, because then you know where the growth is going in terms of buds and size. I'm going to cut a branch every day or so, and I'll cut away some of the bottom where there's hardly any light. I always try to cut as little as possible. I can't tell you whether this is the right way to do it or not, but this is how I usually do it.
... I don't really like the shape, let's see how it turns out, hehe. ๐
