No issue besides trying figure out when to cut down

🌸 Flowering – Week 7 | Day 48 (Day 83 overall) Quick update focused on the Future #1 plants. It has become quite clear by now that both Future #1 plants need more time than originally expected. In terms of development, they are still clearly behind and will very likely require at least 3 more weeks, possibly longer depending on how they progress over the final stretch. At this stage, the plan is simply to keep the run stable, continue without unnecessary changes, and give the plants the time they need to fully mature.

happy new year, everyone! plants are thriving, stretch is happening and the experimental is showing buds already (it's been switched one week earlier) 😊 --- another major defoliation done – Barney claimed that lateral branching is heavy and it's indeed 😂

the girl started to bloom this week, although the weather was not very good, but the girl is seeing the sun more and more often, which she likes:) let's keep growing.

Carbon filter and in-line fan with tempature and humidity controls installed, as weak smell noticicable, when opening tent. Watering increased to 2 litres every 3 days with frequency of feeding increased to each time I water.

Langsam werden schon die ersten Narben braun. Ich denke da kommt aber noch ein dickes Bulking. Aufjedenfall ist sie schon mega klebrig und hat einen interessanten Geruch.

2022-09-17 The journey of the Hella Jelly is over. Plants were supereasy to grow. all Seeds germinated, seedlings started strong, and in later Vegetation they were spreading. here they spuld have got more Training from me. Because they turned out quite bushy The branches had to carry Biiiig green Buds , covered with frosting and were bending over in the End, so they needed some Support. I was alittle worried because the Pistils stayed white/ green. then i read the straindescription and looked at Pictures again and i knew everything is fine Iam harvesting with cloudy/ amber Trichomes. Plants leaves were also fading and changing to autumn Im courious what the Buds show , if they are cured, and ready to be tested.

🌿 Cosmic Noodles — Week 6 Flower (Week 10 from Seed) ✦ Context & Run Setup 12/12 from seed. Autoflower expression under controlled flowering conditions — a hybrid rhythm between speed and structure. What we’re seeing now is the result of early structure + stable environment + precise feeding. And also… one lesson plant that deserves respect. ⸻ ⚠️ The Overwater Plant — A Necessary Decision This week, we made a call. Not emotional — responsible. One plant, previously pushed through intentional overwatering conditions, did not recover. Root zone remained compromised, oxygen exchange was limited, and overall plant vitality continued declining. What we observed: • Persistent droop and lack of turgor recovery • Slowed or stalled bud development • Increased risk profile (humidity pockets, potential for rot/microbial issues) At this stage in flower, the plant wasn’t just underperforming — she was becoming a liability to the room. So the decision was made: ✂️ Harvest early, remove risk, protect the ecosystem. Yield was minimal — but that was never the point. This plant served as a living case study. 💡 Key takeaway for the community: Overwatering is not about “too much water” — it’s about lack of oxygen in the root zone. Once that balance is lost for too long, recovery becomes unlikely. Respect to her. She taught more than she produced. ⸻ 🌱 The Rest of the Garden — Absolute Explosion Now… the contrast. The remaining plants are doing the exact opposite. They are: • Vigorous • Structurally stacked • Visibly happy ✦ What we’re seeing: • Bud sites fully formed and stacking aggressively • Dense, symmetrical structure across the canopy • Leaves holding a deep, healthy green • Strong transpiration and daily drinking rhythm These girls are not just growing — they are driving energy exactly where it needs to go. ⸻ 💧 Water, Feeding & Plant Demand Current intake: • 1.6 – 1.8L per plant / 24h This tells us everything: • Root systems are active • Transpiration is strong • Environment is dialed ✦ Parameters: • Temperature: 26°C • RH: 60% • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • CO₂: ~1000 ppm This combination is creating: → Efficient nutrient uptake → Strong metabolic activity → Continuous flower development They are eating, drinking, and converting. ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development — Where It Gets Beautiful At ~Week 6 flower: • Calyx stacking is now visibly dominant • Buds are transitioning from formation → mass accumulation • Structure is tightening, weight is coming in And the key detail: 👉 The plants are still pushing fresh growth, not fading early → This means the engine is still running strong You’ve built a system where: • Energy is available • Environment supports it • Genetics are expressing fully That’s why they look like this. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Size & Structure • Average height: ~1.2 meters • Even canopy with strong tops • Light penetration still effective This is the sweet spot: 👉 Big enough to produce 👉 Controlled enough to manage ⸻ 🔍 Why They’re Thriving (While One Didn’t) This is the real lesson of this week. The difference wasn’t genetics. It was the root environment. Healthy plants: • Oxygenated root zone • Stable wet/dry cycle • Consistent nutrient availability Overwatered plant: • Oxygen deprivation • Root stress → reduced uptake • Cascade effect into weak growth Everything above the soil is just a reflection of what happens below it. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Coming into the next phase: ✦ Expect: • Continued bud swelling • Increased density and weight • Possible early signs of fade (depending on feeding strategy) • Higher demand for stability (environment becomes critical now) ✦ Watch for: • Humidity control (as buds thicken) • Airflow through the canopy • Any signs of internal moisture pockets We are entering the “everything counts” phase. ⸻ 🤝 Closing Words To everyone watching this journey: • Day one supporters • Silent observers • Question askers • Even the doubters This is for all of you. To the community, to GD, to the sponsors, to the genetics — thank you for being part of this process. Because this isn’t just a grow. It’s: → Learning → Sharing → Improving together ⸻ And to the garden… One plant taught us a lesson. The others are showing us what happens when everything aligns. This is balance. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Loving this new camera quality! Really brings out the green shine. Anyways they've all been loving the feeding regimen. Two feedings a week with 2 molasses feedings in between seems to do the trick at this stage. Also wanted to mention the height is in reference to the tallest of the three BanDad's. Which is the one I topped surprisingly. For future reference, anybody following a similar formula to my grow will definitely want to top just once around week 2/3. She didn't even take a recovery period, really. Just chugged right back through, 3 days after. Now she dwarfs the other two BanDads quite immensely. Definitely been destroying my initial notion of not topping autos with this one. Cheers everyone!

Heute war Zeit für die Ernte, der Duft ist traumhaft süß und sehr sehr intensiv. Ich hätte sie gerne noch 1-2 Wochen stehen lassen aber ich musste das Zelt frei bekommen für die permanent Marker die schon drauf warten umgetopft zu werden. Jetzt kann der vcure von vivosun Mal zeigen ob er sein Geld wert ist. Es wird die erste Trocknung in dem gerät sein und ich bin sehr gespannt drauf. Es ist der 14 Tage Modus aktiviert, 7 Tage trocknen bei 20°c und 60%rlf,danach wird es 7 Tage curing bei 18°c und 55%rlf. 15.04.2026 heute habe ich die buds aus der vcure geholt und den schönschliff mit der Schere gemacht. mit dem Ergebnis bin ich Recht zufrieden von der Menge her, der Geruch ist sehr fruchtig, ich mag ihn.

Pow pow and welcome in official start of week 12 (week6 of flower) We are 86 days from seed and 36 days into flowering period now. It’s definitely the strangest part as every day gets longer and longer with waiting 😉 Good part is - we are in total cruise control mode now. It’s the last week girls are getting any food with EC around 2.2 - 4 litres per day each. Dehumidifier pulling out around 6 litres of water every 24h still keeping humidity on high 50’s - it’s not bad. Overdrive is doing its magic - day after first implementation buds started to get bigger and bigger every day 😍 LemonWalker with main branches as big as my arm started showing the weight so needed to instal some quick support above scrog netting using training wire leftovers. Keep it locked and stay tuned with photo updates during the week 🙌

D63/F15 - 11.21 - easily the most vigorous plants in the tent. The passion berry has unbelievable structure and stretch. She stands about 6 inches taller than all the others today. I have 5 more fem'd Passion Berry seeds. 😈Depending on how this one finishes and the bud profile, they might get their own tent next run. D66/F18 - 11.24 - Little LA sunset that was such a runt for so long is starting to put on buds all nice. Gonna defoliate her in 4-5 days. More pics to come of the big girls tomorrow after they get defoliated 👍 D67/F19 - 11.25 - Defoliation is complete! Everything is looking great! D69/F21 - 11.27 - the little LA Sunset is looking just dandy, a few more days until the last little defoliation session.

A little yellowing of the top canopy. Keeping PH in line. Did a light defoliation and pulled back a few branches with plant ties.

Day 138 / Week 9 of Flowering: Today i harvested plant #2, she was also several days ahead of plants #1 and #4. She's been flushed and has been kept in pretty dry conditions. The buds on this plant look mouthwatering 🤤, the smell is intense! The remaining 2 plants received 2l of water each, just to hold on for a few more days..

Ladies from the 2x3 moved over to the 2x2.

So technically we are at week 8 but!! I messed up and added an extra germination week. Trio are looking great! One has been flowering for the last two weeks, the other two have just started their preflower so so I switched the Nutrients up to Sensi Bloom A&B also added big bud and fish shit to their flowering feed water. Ive been heavy on the defoliation on the larger two, to increase light penetration to the LST bud sites. As youll see in the video , ive been experimenting with the 90° LST clips and found they work amazingly!! However, the ends do snap as your plants grow, so they as seeming like a one time use for this brand at least.

This week RS11 is progressing nicely in its second week of flowering. Pistils are now appearing in greater numbers, and real blooming has started. A second defoliation was done – removing lower leaves and shaded growth. The plant remains healthy and responds well to LST and higher nutrient levels. As a bonus, I’m including a short video of the full main grow box. 😱🔥

Runtz layer cake was a blast to grow. I really enjoy Runtz flavor and taste. The girl was big and wide. We love that always.no mold and no bug damage. She also had to problem with the cold.
