This is still week 7 but a couple days after last weeks pictures. The Photos haven’t fully flipped to flower but are showing clear signs. Really pleased with Somango and BCP but I’m not really liking the way LSD is growing. Doesn’t have an abundance of leaves and is growing really long Branches. We’ll see how that goes in Flower, I hope it’s not going to turn in to a lot of Space and/or humidity Problems.

Wow, coming along. The girls are really getting smelly. I actually added a second carbon filter on the exhaust & have invested in a dehumidifier, keeping the humidity levels at 50% for the rest of the grow. It is running 24/7 draining into a bucket outside of the tent. I will use the water from the dehumidifier to feed my girls. I also managed to get some cal mag to help my burnt edges. Other things I have changed for this week as we are preflowering is switching the schedule from 24 hours of light to 18/6. I think this has helped the plants get some much needed rest after vegging. 12th of August. I think I can see it starting to flower!! * Minor defoliation to remove leaves that are damaged from watering at the bottom of the plant 16/08/22 Grow question ADAM BASE A - NPK 3-0-1 (3 ml/l) EVE BASE B - NPK 0-4-3 (3 ml/l) LUSH - NPK 5-0-0.5 (1 ml/l) RAPTURE - NPK 0.7-3-3 (1.5 ml/l) Herbi Cal mag NPK: 4 – 0 – 0 (1.8ml/l) 1L ADAM & EVE: Your base Nutrient, used from start to finish. 1L LUSH: Veg stage focused nutrient additive. 1L Rapture: Applied in early Bloom/Flowering. I water around 1.5 liters of mixed water PH'd to 5.8 to each plant, giving me about 20-30% run off. Am I overwatering my plants? Update! 17/08/22 I flushed the plants with 4 liters of water each using half the nutrients I was using before 13ml to 9l Adam 13ml to 9l Eve 6ml to 9l Lush 8ml to 9l Cal mag Left out the bloom - I'll add it again for the next feed. The canoeing I had on the smaller plant already seems less intense - hopefully see some good changes as we head into the next week for flowering. Today I will do a more invasive defoliation on the big plant, removing all of the fan leaves on the bottom - stay tuned for week 5 starting tomorrow. A few more weeks and hopefully we get some nice juicy buds!!!

Greetings one and all, welcome back to my garden. Late update as I’ve been busy. Cruise control on all ladies, at this point I’m just being patient, following the feeding calculator to the letter. Shogun Nutrients have proven to be a great range, absolutely no issues whatsoever since day one. A few weeks to go before flush and hopefully we’ll see a real explosion in flower output. Right now the aroma in closet is a mixture of citrus and candy. Impressive genetics by FastBuds.

So apparently my camera does not seem to know what shade green it wants to use. Red Pop #4 is without a doubt the strangest specimen in the group. It is displaying what appears to be polyploid traits in one of its tops. Along with a strange trait displayed by the petioles in attaching to the main stem in a vertical manner causing leave to grow vertically instead of horizontally. It also needs far more nutrients than the rest as it has grown much larger despite bending the main stem 90 degrees at two seperate points. Red pop #2 is a midget and has grown very weak. On a more positive note, I have fixed my humidity issue and now average around 55%. Airflow was the issue. not enough air intake into the tent. Silly me.

SO..........................the girls are doing okay. I can only expect so much, given they're in 5 gals (except for LB), and half of them didn't get a good start. It's a nice experiment, for comparison sake. I don't think there's any bad plants here (of course, I don't think there are any bad plants ANYWHERE, EVER), just some early bloomers and some that still need some time. I've been feeding them with Tiger Bloom and a seaweed/kelp additive, and they've had two doses now of guano for top-dressing. Now I'm running out of room, should've planned better and left more room at the top of the bags. Never again with the 5 gals, they're great for indoor but way too restrictive for outdoor even way up here in Maine. I just finished LST again and they're looking pretty funky, but it's getting the desired result. GLad I kept some of them straight and didn't top, I want to see the difference in the end between nature's architecture and my twisted mess. SO far, so good, but I'm a little worried about the Ph. Again, my solution is good (around 6- 6.3), but my medium still comes in at 7 even. Great buffering shit, but I really need to acidify the soil a bit more. I've got some PhDown, but I'm worried that if I drop the solution too low I'll burn the plants. On the other hand, it doesn't seem to have much of an effect so far at 6.... 7/31 Update: Gave the ladies another round of bat guano, 2 lbs. spread hroughout a dozen plants. Kinda worried that I used too much, but the first applications weren't enough so we'll see. Yesterday gave 'em a feeding of Tiger Bloom, today I watered the guano in with well water that I adjusted (using PhDown) to a reasonable 6.5. A good dry day, bright too, they should soak it up good today!

Bellissime,abbondanti e cariche di infiorescenze resinose e profumate! Dimensioni grandi e qualità altissima! È stata una settimana bella e calda e ormai siamo in estate quindi continuano a riempirsi di infiorescenze molto resinose e dure. Ogni varietà è una vera soddisfazione! Grazie a tutte le banche dei semi che hanno creato queste varietà magnifiche! Per alcune manca poco alla raccolta mentre altre ci vuole più di una settimana di attesa anche due settimane. Sono felice, bravissimi tutti.

I topped it when it was younger and when it started to flower I Lolipopped it and I’ve been super cropping the branches every day and I run only organic nutrients and worm castings I use milk for calcium and magnesium supplement 3-10 ratio ph the water, I have also used boiled banana peel water that simmered for about 4 hours and cooled down to room temp for a day, used about 1 1/2 cups to a gallon of water, both very good flowering supplements and also miracle grows new omri certified vegetable nutrient along with Shultz African Violet plant food which has zinc maganese all that stuff in there I have no nutrient deficiency’s at all and these plants grow like WEEDS! HAPPY GROWING!!!! SMELLS ARE INSANE BTW WHENEVER I OPEN THE TENT THE WHOLE HOUSE SMELLS LIKE FUNKY FRUIT GAS

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 5 (First Week Flower) | Pre-Bloom & Heat Talk 🌿 The Lava Cakes have officially stepped into their flowering tent… though, to be fair, they’re still enjoying a little extra veg time before showing pistils. Both phenos are healthy, lush, and stretching beautifully, clearly ready for the show ahead. ⸻ 📸 Photo Studio Glam We took them out for another studio shoot, bright lights, clean background, and every angle showing off their deep greens and perfect branching. Soon, their beauty will be dressed in flowers, but for now, the leaf structure alone is worthy of the spotlight. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C Yes, the temperature is running hot — AC unit is on the way to lock it back into our ideal zone. ⸻ 💬 Heat in the Grow Room – Risks & Benefits Potential Risks: • Faster substrate drying = more frequent irrigation needed • Higher transpiration rates can stress plants if roots can’t keep up • Slightly increased risk of light stress at high PPFD without proper cooling • Possible reduced terpene retention if sustained into late flower Possible Benefits (short term in veg/pre-flower): • Accelerated metabolism — plants grow and stretch faster • Increased water/nutrient uptake (if well-fed and watered on time) • Can improve CO₂ usage efficiency if levels are high enough Bottom line: As long as they’re hydrated, fed, and ventilated, short bursts of high temp are manageable. But for flowering, we want to keep daytime temps closer to 24–28°C for optimal quality. ⸻ 💧 Watering Strategy We water when the soil dries to about 25% moisture remaining, this encourages: • Stronger root growth searching for water • Better oxygenation of the root zone • Less risk of root rot in warm temps Right now: They’re drinking daily due to the heat, so we’re feeding daily as well. ⸻ Current Feeding (per L of water) • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml With the increased drinking rate, nutrient uptake has increased — meaning no signs of deficiency, just steady lush green. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC installation will stabilize temps, allowing tighter VPD control • First signs of pistils should appear within the next 7–10 days • We’ll begin adjusting feed ratios for early bloom once flowers set • Light intensity will climb further as stretch continues ⸻ 💚 Closing Note: This week is all about momentum, heat or no heat, the Lava Cakes are pushing upward, prepping themselves for a heavy flower load. The environment tweaks are on the way, and we’re building them the perfect stage for their bloom performance. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.
