Week 6 Summary: First off, Happy New Year!! Ciao 2018, may 2019 be filled with peace, love, joy and dank buds 😄😉 Day 36-39: Started off nice well this week, considering the amount of defoliation I did on day 35. Some more stretching going on here but not too much, except 4AM3 has a central shoot I couldn't find a spot to LST that just started to shoot right up lol. Starting to show some nice frost on Day 36 too. 4AM2 is already starting to plump up a bit, don't think will get much more stretch on that one, seems like it will probably harvest the least. I might have overdone the defoliation on it on Day 35 lol. 4AM2 is the one I decided to top for the hell of it anyway because it had a really wierd growth mutation. Still, with less main tops to produce it might be the best bud of them all 😅 Day 37-42: Day 37 is when I started seeing a deficiency I thought might have been magnesium on 4AM1. Pictures to show up top. Since their next feeding wasn't scheduled until day 42 I waited. Day 38 and it had spread a little on the same plant, and typical calmag deficiencies started slowly showing up on a few other plants(really tiny amounts). I posted on reddit and pretty much confirmed my suspiscion of a calmag deficiency. Since I am watering twice a week, once with calmag ph'd to 6.8-6,9 and once with blume nutes ph'd at 6.3-6,5. The calmag feeding was done on day 42( as scheduled at full strength this time so hopefully the problem will go away. 4AM2 hasn't been watered yet, pot didn't feel completely light yet(plus she had the most runoff last feed), will get her dose tomorrow. P.S. Really starting to smell like sweet berries! Mmm.. 😍 On to week 7!

Super burnt lol. Ooops I'll still finish her off and hope for the best. Should still be some decent smoke 👌 For sure a shame she's a bigger girl too.

Responded well to all kinds of training, beautiful fall colors with purple dominant. Will add more comments post cure. Sampled some bud cured for 3 days after drying for 7, love the uplifting sativa feeling i'm getting from it. Of the branch that i got that sample from (about 1/5 of the whole plant) I got 13.5g. Ended up with around 2.5 oz dry!

She reached peak maturity in around 65 days. Beautiful plant but the most captivating thing is her terpene profile. It is very very sweet berry aroma almost artificially prominent. I’m truly curious how are these buds going to smell in a few weeks after drying and some curing.

2-1 Got her first water in new home. Was not watered in during x plant. Let her dry what she had first. 7ml EM1 will get a bigger dose soon. Just to kick things off. Around 1/2 tsp recharge, 1ml drops of balance. 1.5 ml Silica. Ph 6.0 500 ml. 2-3 Wish I would have watered 250-300. 500 was a bit much, should be fine. Looks very happy and perky. 2-4 Looks like she may have the fungus. Removed first leaves. 2-5 Peroxide spray at lights out. Slight possibility on 2nd set of leaves. 2-6 Removed 3rd set up leaves. Oh my goodness not again! Foliar spray, Canncontrol 300ml water .8 ml CannC. As a precaution. Enlisted Valiotoro, light may have burnts when lights came on from foliar. I dont remember checking. Focused more on if spread. 😂 Hope this helps. 🤞 Sad that the leaf removal will slow her down. .

🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato Auto — Week 11 From Seed (Week 7 Flower) Quick Recap — How We Got Here From day one, this run followed a simple principle: let the plant express itself. 12/12 from seed, no forcing, no chasing—just creating a stable environment and letting the plant grow into the light rather than adapting the light to the plant. Temperatures steady at 26°C, humidity around 60%, CO₂ at ~1000 ppm, and consistent feeding without overcomplication. No aggressive training, no unnecessary intervention—just guidance, not control. And now… we’re here. ⸻ 🌿 What You’re Seeing Now (And What It Actually Means) At first glance, it looks like “not much is happening.” But this is one of the most active internal phases of the plant’s life. 🌸 Bud Development — From Size to Density The buds are no longer just stacking—they’re hardening. * Calyxes are swelling * Structure is tightening * Weight is increasing This is the transition from visual growth → mass accumulation ⸻ ✨ Trichome Production — The Real Work This is where the plant shifts focus into resin and terpene production. * Trichomes are multiplying and becoming more pronounced * Resin heads are filling * Aromatics are developing deeper complexity What people see as “frost” is actually the plant investing in its final defense and reproduction strategy. ⸻ 🌱 The Invisible Half — Roots & Balance You said it perfectly. Plants live in two worlds: * Phototropism → growth toward light (above ground) * Gravitropism (Geotropism) → growth with gravity (roots going down) What we see above is only possible because below the surface, the roots already did the work. This stage is the result, not the effort. ⸻ 👀 The Grower’s Role Right Now This is where experience shows. You’re not “doing nothing.” You’re doing one of the hardest things: → Not interfering when everything is working. What matters now: * Daily observation * Hand watering (keeping that connection with each plant) * Watching micro-changes * Maintaining environment stability Because right now, mistakes don’t come from action… they come from unnecessary action. ⸻ ⚠️ Risk Management — The Silent Battle Dense flowers + stable humidity = potential risk zone. So this phase becomes about prevention, not reaction: * Airflow through the canopy * Avoiding moisture pockets * Monitoring for early signs of: * Mold * Mildew * Bud rot So far—clean run. That’s not luck. That’s attention. ⸻ 🌿 Philosophy — “Doing Nothing Is Doing Everything” This is one of those weeks that teaches patience. Anyone can feed. Anyone can adjust lights. But not everyone can observe without interfering. This is where growing becomes less about technique… and more about trust. ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Next (Week 8 Flower) * Continued bud swelling * Increased density and weight * Trichomes becoming more cloudy * Aromas intensifying You’ll begin approaching the window where decisions matter: * When to push * When to hold * When to finish ⸻ 🤝 Shoutout & Gratitude From grower to growers: To everyone following the journey— the OGs, the new eyes, the silent watchers, the loud supporters, even the skeptics… To the community on GrowDiaries and beyond. To the genetics behind this expression. To the environment that allowed it. To the process itself. And to every single person putting time into their craft, whether anyone sees it or not. ⸻ 🌱 Final Thought People celebrate the flower. But the flower is just the evidence. The real work… was always underground. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. 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 just switched to water on Quebec Blast. Starting the purging of nutrition from the plant to harvest. Next update will be a harvest. Trichromes are frosty so should be prime ripeness when ready. She grew under the Spider Farmer SE5000 light in New Level Hydro buckets the whole grow.

We're rolling into week 22, the 9th week of flower for these wonderful girls. Possibly the last week they'll have, at least the last week UKBS 1 may have. They've both shown great progress in terms of growth in the past week in my opinion, and the trichomes are beginning to present as cloudy with a smattering of amber. I like my CBN, so I prefer to let them amber slightly more than most. Rest assured I'll be keeping a close eye on trichome color in this next week or two. Timelapse is out for the week. Updates come as the week progresses, as usual. EOS T5 shots are out. -7/4/2021 - A cola on Carl 1 was too heavy for it's own good, and snapped. I decided to remove and dry it as I really don't see a point in trying to re-attach it at this point in flower. -7/6/2021 - Another cola snapped on Carl 1. Unfortunate, I was hoping she'd fatten up further first. Ah well.

The plant is stretching very fast. It's very healthy. Besides being the smallest plant in the grow, she is doing well.

25.01. F23 The stretch is now completely finished, with the plants standing at around 82 cm. Bud development is progressing well, with clear improvements in structure and density. Unfortunately, powdery mildew remains an issue. Affected leaves are removed daily to limit further spread. In addition, the plants are treated twice per week with Purolyt to keep spore pressure as low as possible.
